Barnes's latest novel is The Mulligan Curse.
Recently I asked the author about what she was reading. Her reply:
I’m reading an ARC of Unclaimed Baggage by Katie O’Rourke. It’s a beautifully written book about a complicated family. The story is emotional andVisit Diane Barnes's website.real. The protagonist is Jenna, a college student who is a twin. When her stepfather falls ill, neither Jenna’s mom nor sister step up to help care for him so Jenna does. She leaves school and moves back home. She discovers family secrets and learns to take care of herself instead of everyone else. Jenna is a relatable character, who is easy to root for her. O’Rourke’s writing style is engaging and drew me in immediately. This is a great book for readers who like character-driven stories about relationships.
