One Two Three (2021)
Laurie Frankel
"I loved One Two Three from start to finish. What you always get with a Laurie Frankel novel is an engrossing plot-she’s a terrific storyteller-but for me the best part of any of her novels are the three-dimensional characters she’s created, characters for whom she has empathy and palpable affection, characters who seem to leap off the page and into the heart of the reader. And that’s never been more evident than in One Two Three. I highly recommend it-it’s a book that will immediately draw you in and provide great reading pleasure."
