"""Combining the suspense and razor-sharp outlook of a Gillian Flynn novel, Maureen Connolly's debut sizzles. I finished Little Lovely Things in one heartbreaking, tear-batting gulp. Connolly takes risks that make the reader's heart start anew. Finding shards of hope amidst the chaos of tragedy is a testament to both the writer, and the characters she creates."" - Jenny Milchman, USA Today bestselling author of Wicked River ""Little Lovely Things is an insightful and moving read that is well worth the journey."" - Vivian Schilling, bestselling author of Quietus ""A shattering adventure."" - Jacquelyn Mitchard, bestselling author of The Deep End of the Ocean"
