She has also written the novels Wifey, Smart Women, and her latest, Summer Sisters, the New York Times No. 1 bestseller.

Judy Blume recommends
Jane's House (1982)
Robert Kimmel Smith
"The most moving, beautiful, realistic book about loving, losing, picking up the pieces and getting on with life that I have read in a long time, maybe ever."
Elsey Come Home (2019)
Susan Conley
"I loved Elsey Come Home. The exotic setting, the characters Elsey meets along the way—her husband, her little girls, her dilemma. And the writing, spare and lovely. What more can I say—perfect."
