A QUOTE FROM CHRISTINA
"So much of fiction and non-fiction are intertwined, even though they are distinct genres - as a writer who usually works in non-fiction, it was so much fun to write a novel where I could make things up, pick and choose plot lines and characters, but also insert real memories, too. Many of the places that Ruthie and Kay go in this book are places I've been on in my own road trips over my life. I hope that readers will get a kick out of going on this trip with them - especially this year when we haven't been able to travel as much as we might normally.”
