Reading Cathy Merritt's book is like wandering through an antique store where every object has a story to tell. These tender, wise vignettes are so full of heart, meaning, and nostalgia that I found myself wanting to step into the pages, pull up a chair, and stay a while. Each vignette in Cathy Merritt's collection feels like a conversation with an old friend. Tell Me It Isn't True is a deeply heartfelt book that reminds us of the beauty in everyday moments and the stories we carry forward. Part memoir, part time capsule, Cathy Merritt's stories open a window into a time nearly forgotten in these fast-moving times-glimpses of small-town life, family love, and the moments that make us who we are. In a world moving too fast, this collection offers a quiet, restorative pause for the soul. -Kathleen Lane is a fiction writer for young readers.
