Best, first, and last
Matthews, Amy T.2024
Large Print
When twenty-five-year-old Heather Russo breaks up with her boyfriend - again - she can't figure out if she's to blame or he is. Either way, she's miserable, and working at home via Zoom meetings is only making it worse. What's more, all the women in her family are struggling. Mom Sandy is convinced she's wasted her life and is now divorcing Heather's father. Grandmother Bonnie is reeling with the grief of losing her third husband, and is carrying the urn everywhere she goes. The bottom has fallen out of their lives so abruptly, the trio is clinging to any handhold they can - and slowly but surely losing their grip. Inspired by a friend's adventurous grandson, and determined not to spend her 70th birthday wallowing, Bonnie is ready to take extreme measures. Even if it means dragging her beloved girls along by the hair, they're going to hike the Incan Trail to Machu Picchu! Of course, their emotional baggage gets packed along with their lightweight jackets, but as they make the trek, the women also talk, sharing stories and secrets that have been festering for far too long.
