On Sale Today: While My Sister Sleeps by Barbara Delinsky

On Sale Today: While My Sister Sleeps by Barbara Delinsky

“Delinsky is a first-rate storyteller who creates believable, sympathetic characters who seem as familiar as your neighbors.”
The Boston Globe

Barbara Delinsky returns with another masterful family portrait that examines how our emotions influence the decisions we make and how letting go is often the hardest thing to do and the greatest expression of love all at the same time.

While My Sister Sleeps tells the story of Molly and Robin Snow, two sisters in the prime of their lives. When Molly learns that Robin has suffered a massive heart attack and may never regain consciousness, the news couldn’t be more shocking. As Robin’s family struggles to cope, it’s up to Molly to make the tough decisions, and she soon makes discoveries that threaten to shatter everything she thought she knew about her sister.

Watch a trailer for the book, read an excerpt, and buy your copy.
