This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:
By Tatjana Soli
Publication Date: September 4
From Amazon:
When Claire Nagy marries Forster Baumsarg, the only son of prominent California citrus ranchers, she knows she’s consenting to a life of hard work, long days, and worry-fraught nights. But her love for Forster is so strong, she turns away from her literary education and embraces the life of the ranch, succumbing to its intoxicating rhythms and bounty until her love of the land becomes a part of her. Not even the tragic, senseless death of her son Joshua at kidnappers’ hands, her alienation from her two daughters, or the dissolution of her once-devoted marriage can pull her from the ranch she’s devoted her life to preserving.
But despite having survived the most terrible of tragedies, Claire is about to face her greatest struggle: an illness that threatens not only to rip her from her land but take her very life. And she's chosen a caregiver, the inscrutable, Caribbean-born Minna, who may just be the darkest force of all.

I love that cover, you don't see many with paintings nowadays.
What a beautiful cover. That sounds like a really emotional roller coaster of a book.
This sounds like such a heartfelt book :(
Wow The Forgetting Tree looks like a book that could really make you think and tug at your heart strings! :)
Seems like Claire could be going through her dark night of the soul... what a sad but beautiful story!
