Mary Beth Latham has built her life around her family, around caring for her three teenage children and preserving the rituals of their daily life. When one of her sons becomes depressed, Mary Beth focuses on him, only to be blindsided by a shocking act of violence. What happens afterward is a testament to the power of a woman’s love and determination, and to the invisible lines of hope and … healing that connect one human being to another. Ultimately, as rendered in Anna Quindlen’s mesmerizing prose, Every Last One is a novel about facing every last one of the things we fear the most, about finding ways to navigate a road we never intended to travel.
BONUS: This edition contains an Every Last One discussion guide and an excerpt from Anna Quindlen’s Blessings.

Anything by Anna Quinlan is worth anyone’s time. She’s brilliant.
Too sad
Loved it
This book is a little darker than most of Anna’s books but it is well written and the characters are well developed so much so that you get wrapped up in their stories.
