"Waiting On" Wednesday: Eight Hundred Grapes


"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted here, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

This week's pre-publication "can't-wait-to-read" selection is:


Eight Hundred Grapes

By Laura Dave
Publication Date: June 2

From Amazon:

Growing up on her family’s Sonoma vineyard, Georgia Ford learned some important secrets. The secret number of grapes it takes to make a bottle of wine: eight hundred. The secret ingredient in her mother’s lasagna: chocolate. The secret behind ending a fight: hold hands.

But just a week before her wedding, thirty-year-old Georgia discovers her beloved fiancé has been keeping a secret so explosive, it will change their lives forever.

Georgia does what she’s always done: she returns to the family vineyard, expecting the comfort of her long-married parents, and her brothers, and everything familiar. But it turns out her fiancé is not the only one who’s been keeping secrets.

  2. Wow. Never has a synopsis pulled me in by little tidbits of facts. I usually don't read straight contemporary, but I'm curious. Good pick; added to the TBR.

  8. This book doesn't sound like what I usually read but the first part of the blurb pulled me in! When it talks about the secret ingredients in a lasagna or secret number of grapes- it just adds this feeling of comfort (as homemade lasagna does:)) and uniqueness to it:)
