Night Road is Kristin Hannah’s newest novel and one that I (yet again) preordered. I was so excited when it came. A lot of Hannah’s novels deal with similar topics, namely close friendships, mother/lack of mothers, and sisters – all of which are topics I love. The one dealt with pretty much each one of these in some form. Night Road is the story of Lexi, a former foster kid, who moves in with her aunt and befriends fellow weirdo Mia. Subsequently, Mia’s family, including twin brother Zach, mom Jude, and dad Miles take Lexi in as their own child, and Zach and Lexi fall in love. Life is great, until one night toward the end of their senior year, when there’s a terrible accident, and everything that the Farraday family and Lexi had built together is shattered. This has to be one of my favorite Hannah books, and in the last year or so I’ve read several. Come read the rest of my thoughts over here!
