Aftermath

De: Ann McMan

Narrado por: Christine Williams

Runner-Up, 2013 Rainbow Award for Lesbian Contemporary General Fiction

Readers everywhere fell in love with Syd, Maddie, David, Michael, Pete, and the irrepressible Roma Jean Freemantle in Ann McMan's 2011 best seller, Jericho. Now, return to the tiny mountain town in the much-anticipated sequel, Aftermath.

Over the past 18 months, Syd, Maddie, and little Henry have become a family, and things are going surprisingly well for most of Jericho's residents...if you don't count the devastating storm that whips through town. In the weeks and months to come, Syd, Maddie, and all of Jericho are forced to pick up the pieces and rebuild their homes, their lives, and their town. The task is sometimes hard, sometimes emotional, and sometimes absurd, but it is always full of smart and sassy humor and an abundance of good food and wine.

Reseñas de la Crítica

" Aftermath by Ann McMan is the follow-up to her debut novel, Jericho. It manages to take all of Jericho's strengths and build on them, leaving the [listener] with a story that is often hilarious, occasionally heartrending, and entirely satisfying.... Christine Williams is back as narrator, and again, the narration is excellent. I truly can't imagine anyone else bringing these words to life in the same way." ( The Lesbian Review)

Wonderful writing!

I love this series! So funny and real. The writing is witty, brilliant and engaging.

A must read.

As with the first book in this line up, it had me laughing, tearing up, making comments out loud, and falling in love with all the characters all over again. A highly under rated book. So happy I ran across this and I can't wait for the next.

Superb

This series has left me wanting more. I have 1 more yet to delve into and cannot wait. Highly recommend getting to know the characters of Jericho and peaking into their lives.

I have but one issue....

I'm pretty sure Playstation controllers don't need double A's. Everything else was awesome. Love the series.

A Contemporary Jane Austen in Appalachia

Emotional intelligence, humor, desire, longing fully developed characters and meticulous detail have me just about to begin the third book in the series, having just finished the second!

This book offers an intimate account of the arc and trajectory of a lesbian couple, with one in the relationship being an impending divorcée and newcomer to the LGBTQ community of a small town in the south.

It is not a work of pornography, and it’s not a formulaic romance, truly a rarity amongst the genre. In fact, this book transcends.

Having worked with many young lesbian mentees from our local community college, I can say with certainty that I would definitely recommend this book to them and to any young women, who are finding their way with their sexuality. I also recommend it to anyone - for all that it is and for the many pearls of wisdom to be discovered along the journey of self-discovery and love.
