The Art of Mending

By Elizabeth Berg...An annual trip home turns Laura's life upside down.  Her sister drops a bombshell on her about their childhood, her brother doesn't believe it, and her father dies suddenly.  This book talks about families and the relationship they have...or don't have.  You can choose your friends but you can't choose your family.  Laura is 50, a quilter, married and with two children...she has left her family behind and now her sister brings up things that happened in the past, Laura is left to decide what to do about the bombshell.  I found this book very interesting and it brought up thoughts about family, loyalty, and how to face the past.  I recommend to anyone!
