Finding their way back to each other might be the only way forward. The weight of their family secrets could not have shaped Pearl and Ruby Crenshaw any differently. Ruby's a runner, living in Dallas and only reluctantly talking to their mother, Birdie, when she calls from prison. Pearl is still living in her mother's fixer-upper and finds herself facing a line in the sand: her weight is threatening to kill her. She's hundreds of pounds beyond the point where she can celebrate her curves or benefit from the body positivity movement, and unless she takes drastic action, the future looks dire. But when Ruby's buried rage explodes in a hilariously viral way, the mistake has life-altering consequences. Now the sisters are back living under the same roof and forced to put the pieces of their separate lives together again. Funny, cinematic, and bursting with heart, this is a story of hope and redemption that celebrates the unbreakable bonds of sisterhood. "A moving story of sisters and their unbreakable bond that spans a lifetime. Both hilarious and heartfelt, Baldwin brings to life characters that not only amuse us but stay with us long after the story is told. With this delightful and meaningful debut, Wendy Willis Baldwin is definitely an author to watch." -Angela Pisel, author of With Love from the Inside 538 $a Mode of access: World Wide Web. 650 0 $a Sisters $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Family secrets $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Life change events $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Mothers and daughters $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Overweight women $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Psychic trauma $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Hope $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Redemption $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Electronic books. 651 0 $a Dallas (Tex.) $v Fiction. 710 2 $a hoopla digital. 856 40 $u https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/15574544?utm_source=MARC $z Instantly available on hoopla. 856 42 $z Cover image $u https://d2snwnmzyr8jue.cloudfront.net/vsa_9781728258201_180.jpeg 941 $a 1 952 $l GFPE771 $d 20231206011928.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=40A874D2940511EE938C1F5A49ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
