About this product

Product Information

All her adult life, Grace Benedict has been living a lie. Now that deception is about to catch up with her. Thirty years ago, Grace and her college roommates--Liz, Tess, and Lovey--made a solemn vow: to hold onto their friendship, to support one another, to keep in touch through a circle journal that would make the rounds among them. And they promised always to tell each other the truth. For three decades that journal has been circulating, carrying stories of Liz's social justice activism in Atlanta and D.C.; of Tess's fulfilling career and perfect home life; of Lovey's dream marriage to a wealthy and powerful former pro football player. But what is Grace to say? Her friends seem so happy and successful. She can't bear to tell them how her life has spiraled downward since college, and she can't bring herself to be honest about the dismal realities and bitter memories she faces every day. She never intends to deceive them--not initially, anyway. She simply embellishes the truth a little, presents her life as a bit more respectable than it really is. But over the years one exaggeration leads to another, and the fiction grows. . . . Until she discovers that she's going to die. Alone and desolate and with little left to lose, Grace determines to take the risk of a lifetime, to reach out to Liz and Tess and Lovey again. And when they reunite, her final battle becomes their struggle as well--a quest for trust, honesty, and enduring emotional connection.

The dialogue is fast paced, intelligent, and heart wrenchingly honest. The writing is clear and concise and speaks to the truths of our connection to the universe and to who we really are."   Joan Medlicott, author ofThe Ladies of Covington Send Their LoveandThe Spirit of Covington, "Penelope Stokes has written the perfect story of enduring friendships.

  • Circle of Grace

    Very insightful novel dealing with the innermost feeling all us have. Whether it be a hum-drum life, inappropriate choices in companions, and feelings of never being able to be the person who is the real you. Most of us live our lives pleasing and doing for others, very few of us tend to put ourselves first, or even to find out who we really are. We just be the person everyone needs us to be. As Grace comes to the end of her life, she touches a part of us we probably will never forget. Helps us to look inside ourselves and realize there is a deeper, forgotten part of us,that will make us feel better if we can get it out. Thought provoking. The first book I have really gotten into in a while, and I read usually 3-4 books a week.

  • Must Read!!!

    Very inspirational book. Loveys time line really make you think. My book club spent a lot of time on the time line idea & when we think we were our best selves.
