Something Blue

The author of Somewhere Off the Coast of Maine presents a richly-written, contemporary novel of friendship and love—"a 90's version of Wendy Wasserstein's Uncommon Women and Others" (People). When a young woman runs away on her wedding day and shows up on the doorstep of an old college chum, the two must forge a new relationship based on the women they've become.
