“Without question, this is McMillan’s best. A glorious novel....A moving tapestry of familial love and redemption.”—The Washington Post

With her hallmark exuberance and a cast of characters so sassy, resilient, and full of life that they breathe, dream, and shout right off the page, Terry McMillan has given us a tour-de-force novel of family, healing, and redemption. A Day Late and a Dollar Short takes us deep into the hearts, minds, and souls of America—and gives us six more friends we never want to leave.

Book reminded me of my family and how even after a death of a dear love one; it takes a heavy doze of reality to bring everyone together an on the same playing field. I love it!! It was a refresher from the other books I have been listening.

Great Listening
