March 26, 2019 This Bookreporter.com Special Newsletter spotlights a book that we know people will be talking about this spring. Read more about it, and enter our Spring Preview Contest by Wednesday, March 27th at 11:59am ET for a chance to win one of five copies of NANAVILLE: Adventures in Grandparenting by Anna Quindlen, which releases on April 23rd. Please note that each contest is only open for 24 hours, so you will need to act quickly! Today's Featured Book and Contest: A bighearted book of wisdom, wit and insight, celebrating the love and joy of being a grandmother, from the Pulitzer Prize–winning columnist and #1 New York Times bestselling author. Before blogs even existed, Anna Quindlen became a go-to writer on the joys and challenges of family, motherhood and modern life in her nationally syndicated column. Now she’s taking the next step and going full nana in the pages of this lively, beautiful and moving book about being a grandmother. Quindlen offers thoughtful and telling observations about her new role, no longer mother and decision-maker but secondary character and support to the parents of her grandson. She writes, “Where I once led, I have to learn to follow.” Eventually a close friend provides words to live by: “Did they ask you?” Candid, funny, frank and illuminating, Quindlen’s singular voice has never been sharper or warmer. With the same insights she brought to motherhood in LIVING OUT LOUD and to growing older in LOTS OF CANDLES, PLENTY OF CAKE, this new nana uses her own experiences to illuminate those of many others.
