Mona Olsen is a midwestern housewife in her midsixties. As matriarch of her family, she is the one common thread tying together the vastly different lives of those around her. When she kills herself, however, that thread is left dangling, and it can either be used to draw her loved ones closer together, or to sever their ties forever.
Her Favorite Month explores what happens when people who live an outwardly happy existence take their own life, and the inexorable ways their suicide affects those who loved them.
Full of insight, reflection, and just enough humor, the story follows a cast of characters who couldn't be more different from each other as they all try to figure out why Mona chose to end her life.
Will Mona's family and friends ever discover her motive? Will they be able to put their differences aside and move forward together? Or will their search for answers reveal deep, dark secrets that will ultimately push them further apart?
Sure to touch your heart and pique your interest from start to finish, Her Favorite Month is a gripping family saga about life, death, survival, and the delicate strength of the human spirit.
