Ellen in Pieces

Author: Caroline Anderson

When a friend was looking for a book recommendation this was one of the suggestions – and it was a good one.

Ellen, a middle-aged, single mother of two grown children, is the main character of the book. Her life is presented as both reflections of the past and descriptions of her current life (and it is an interesting one). The first part of the book is very light and humorous but it gets serious further along.

Part of the appeal was that it is set in Vancouver so many of the locations were familiar.
