Called "hilarious and heart-wrenching" by People and "a knowing look at the costs and rewards of remaking a family," by the Hartford-Courant, the book was also featured in Redbook, Working Mother, and USA Today among others. A collection of these stories, I'M NOT JULIA ROBERTS, was published by Warner Books in January 2007. Her short fiction for adults has appeared in various literary magazines, including Other Voices, The Florida Review, Sycamore Review and Nimrod. Raised in the wilds of suburban New Jersey, Laura Ruby now lives in Chicago with her family. Not even Sean, who has more reason to find Roza than anyone, and every reason to blame Finn for letting her go.Īs we follow the stories of Finn, Roza, and the people of Bone Gap-their melancholy pasts, their terrifying presents, their uncertain futures-acclaimed author Laura Ruby weaves a heartbreaking tale of love and loss, magic and mystery, regret and forgiveness-a story about how the face the world sees is never the sum of who we are. But the searches turned up nothing, and no one believes him anymore. He knows she was kidnapped, ripped from the cornfields by a dangerous man whose face he cannot remember. Who are you going to blame?įinn knows that’s not what happened with Roza. That’s just how things go, the people said. Just a few years before, their mother had high-tailed it to Oregon for a brand new guy, a brand new life. After all, it wasn’t the first time that someone had slipped away and left Finn and Sean O’Sullivan on their own. So when young, beautiful Roza went missing, the people of Bone Gap weren’t surprised. Everyone knows Bone Gap is full of gaps-gaps to trip you up, gaps to slide through so you can disappear forever.
