SUMMARY:Third Thursday Signing: Mindy Friddle with Her Best Self
DESCRIPTION:We’re excited to announce that author Mindy Friddle will be joining us on Third Thursday in June with the launch of her new southern fiction work\, Her Best Self. Get ready for a fun night\, filled with treats and meeting this award-winning author live at Main Street Reads! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHer Best Self: Janelle Wolf longs to be the woman she once was—an adored wife\, a loving mother\, a career woman\, a force in her community—before a mysterious car accident stole her memories\, ruined her reputation\, and upended her life. \n\n\n\nThese days\, her troubled family needs that capable woman from the past\, the one she calls “Janelle Before.” Enter Lana\, an alluring and magnetic psychic healer who meets secretly with Janelle. Lana coaxes Janelle to remember the circumstances of her accident in order to recover Janelle’s “best self.” Instead\, Janelle uncovers the ugly truth behind that night. The revelations unravel Janelle’s marriage\, disrupt her family\, and turn her small southern town upside down. Written with wry humor\, this diabolically entertaining tale of deception\, temptation\, and love is filled with dark twists\, exploring what happens when the transgressions of the past come back with a vengeance. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMindy Friddle is the author of the novel Her Best Self as well as Secret Keepers (winner of the Willie Morris Award for Southern Fiction). The Garden Angel\, her first novel and SIBA bestseller\, was selected for Barnes & Noble’s Discover Great New Writers. The South Carolina Arts Commission awarded Friddle a prose fellowship\, and she has twice won the state’s Fiction Prize. Her stories and essays have appeared in numerous journals. She holds an MFA from Warren Wilson and lives on Edisto Island\, South Carolina.
