Debbie Fuller Thomas, author of Tuesday Night at the Blue Moon and Raising Rain
“Bonnie Grove has a remarkable gift not only for can’t-put-the-book-down storytelling, but she also takes on big, weighty issues—betrayal, grief, wrenching regrets—and handles them with compassion, humor, and ultimately, hope.”
Joy Jordan-Lake, author Blue Hole Back Home and Why Jesus Makes Me Nervous
“Masterfully written, Talking to the Dead thrusts you into the murky world of grief. Despite the deep subject, Bonnie Grove handles the topic with a light hand as we sojourn with a woman who questions her sanity while viewing life with a quirky sense of awareness. With a bittersweet blending of grief and grace, Talking to the Dead leaves you feeling fully satisfied.”
Megan DiMaria, author of Out of Her Hands and Searching for Spice
“Bonnie Grove’s debut novel is one to savor, brimming with an addictive story, characters you come to love, and a perfect dollop of humor. Good gravy, is it good: I’m talking stay-up-later-than-your-early-morning-permits good. Dear reader, you are in for a treat.”
Kimberly Stuart, author of Act Two
“Bonnie Grove’s Talking to the Dead is a disturbing yet redemptive spiral through complicated grief. You can’t help but cheer for her heroine as she emerges from her chrysalis of pain a stronger, wiser woman, ready to soar. Christian fiction lovers will relish this tale.”
