The regal old woman came from wealthy and bluest-blood New England stock, but that didn't protect her from life's cruelest blows: the disappearance of Genevieve's young son, followed by the premature death of her husband. But Genevieve rose from those ashes of grief and built a fashion empire that was respected the world over, even when it meant neglecting her other son. <p/>When Emma's own mother died, her father abandoned her on his mother's doorstep. Genevieve took Emma in and reluctantly raised her--until Emma got pregnant her senior year of high school. Genevieve kicked her out with nothing but the clothes on her back...but Emma took with her the most important London possession: the strength not just to survive but to thrive. And indeed, Emma has built a wonderful life for herself and her teenage daughter, Riley. <p/>So what is Emma to do when Genevieve does the one thing Emma never expected of her and, after not speaking to her for nearly two decades, calls and asks for help? <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> <b>Praise for<i> Life and Other Inconveniences</i></b> <p/>"Deeply touching, real and raw, but infused with the love and hope that make life possible, despite everything."--Abbi Waxman, author of<i> The Bookish Life of Nina Hill</i> <p/> "Master storyteller Kristan Higgins deftly balances humor and heart in this latest tale of a young woman navigating her relationship with a dying grandmother who long-ago abandoned her when she needed her most...another must-read from Higgins, who has long been an auto-buy for me."--Colleen Oakley, author of<i> Before I Go </i>and <i>Close Enough to Touch</i> <p/> "Higgins is a mastermind of family dynamics in this poignant novel about two different generations of women struggling to find common ground.
