SUMMARY:Vroman's Bookstore:  Laura Lekkos discusses & signs All the Little Ways
DESCRIPTION:In the vein of Pineapple Street and Such a Fun Age\, a smart\, heartfelt debut novel about two expecting mothers navigating motherhood\, family life\, and female friendship\, whose bond is threatened by a shocking revelation. \nVictoria and Liz barely breathe the same air\, but they collide headfirst when they meet in a group for expectant mothers and find common ground against all odds. \nVictoria\, forty-three\, is confident\, poised\, and powerful\, on the fast track to major career success in finance. Having kids is not in the plan. She had avoided love for decades–and hadn’t been too keen on female friendship either–when she fell for Ace\, a dashing man twenty years her senior. \nLiz\, thirty-two\, lives a fairly unstable life\, trying to make her situationship work and navigate a job on a vile reality dating show. She’s desperately wanted to experience motherhood for her entire life\, but anxiety and insecurity have landed her with a laundry list of failed romances. It’s an accident–ish–when she gets pregnant with her emotionally elusive boyfriend Preston’s baby just shy of a year into dating. \nWhen Liz and Victoria meet in a parenting class\, they both feel out of place amongst these pregnant women who seem to have it all figured out. They roll their eyes at the classic sign-off peppering the new mommy group chat: TIA (thanks in advance!). Alienated from these other women and due within a week of each other\, Victoria and Liz’s bond becomes a lifeline as they navigate their pregnancies and relationships. They grapple with impending motherhood together and lean on each other to navigate important decisions about family\, career\, and love. It’s the first successful female friendship in Victoria’s life and the first time Liz has felt so connected to an older\, wiser confidante. Maybe\, just maybe\, it will all be okay. \nBut as they grow more secure in their futures with each other’s support\, the friends confront a shocking turn of events that will change the course of both their lives. Victoria and Liz then must reckon with their relationships\, their impending journeys of motherhood\, and the strength of their own bond in this unforgettable work of women’s fiction.
