Tell the Wolves I'm Home by Carol Rifka Brunt

This was such a pleasant surprise. A bit in the same vein as The Great Believers (1980’s, AIDS epidemic, art), but through an entirely different lens. It’s a story that is as tragic as it is heartwarming, and one of the most honest fictional accounts of motherhood, sisterhood and growing up that I have come across. Really glad we read this. Makes for a great book club read too!
