Book excerpt: Three women, united by love and kinship, struggle to conform to the social norms of the times in which they lived. In 1931, Katherine Henderson leaves behind her small town in Kansas and the marriage proposal of a local boy to live on her own and work at the Sears & Roebuck glove counter in Chicago. There she meets Annie--a bold, outspoken feminist who challenges Katherine's idea of who she thinks she is and what she thinks she wants in life. In 1997, Katherine's daughter, Joan, travels to Lawrence, Kansas, to clean out her estranged mother's house. Hidden away in an old suitcase, she finds a wooden box containing trinkets and a packet of sealed letters to a person identified only by a first initial. Joan reads the unsent letters and discovers a woman completely different from the aloof and unyielding mother of her youth-a woman who had loved deeply and lost that love to circumstances beyond her control. Now she just has to find the strength to use the healing power of empathy and forgiveness to live the life she's always wanted to live.

Book excerpt: As I (very reluctantly) approach my late mid-twenties, I can't help but think back on the many conversations I have had over the years. However, more than this, I can't help but regret the ones I didn't have. That's what this book is about. It is a collection of conversations that I could have, would have and should have had but didn't because they were too difficult or too awkward or too honest. This is an assortment of 100 letters to different people, things and situations I have encountered in my 25 years of life. Some are quite heartfelt while others make for a good laugh. Through these letters, I document the best, worst and okayest moments of my life. Finally, while I still have the folly of youth as a plausible excuse, these are my honest thoughts on: Family, Friends, God, Boys, People, A Million Little Things and it my greatest hope that anyone reading this finds a bit of themselves in these pages. "When you find out how I'm living, I just hope I'm forgiven"- Drake
