EARLY PRAISE
“Ghosts of Harvard is written with a masterly, focused hand, belying the fact that this is Serritella’s debut novel. The pages burn with frenetic energy and are peopled by memorable, compelling characters. The tension is palpable, the twists and surprises perfectly timed and the stakes as high as humans should be asked to endure. The end result, a novel you will long remember and characters you will want to see again. A triumph in every respect.”
—#1 New York Times bestselling author David Baldacci
“Wow, what a lively, compelling, and intoxicating debut. Ghosts of Harvard is so many things—a rumination on grief, a glimpse behind the ivory walls of a famous institution, a poignant look at mental illness, and a powerful story about the ghosts that haunt us all. Francesca Serritella is my new ‘go-to’ author.”
—#1 New York Times bestselling author Harlan Coben
“Every time I thought I knew where Ghosts of Harvard was heading, I turned out to be wrong. Part mystery, part ghost story, part psychological thriller, this novel is all entertainment.”
—#1 New York Times bestselling author Jodi Picoult

I hope you all had a great Labor Day! It may be the end of summer, but when I looked in the sky, I saw the clouds like an ellipsis, so I guess it’s to be continued…

My labor day weekend was spent FINALLY reading Eternal. As heartbreaking as it is, I could not have loved it any more. A great way to spend the weekend!
Jodi Picoult is always a must-buy for me! I can't wait for my copy of BY ANY OTHER NAME to arrive so I can dig right in! And, the cover is gorgeous! Don't miss out on this gem!
Sounds good!
I just started reading it on my IPad today

Lisa, I miss your chick lit on Sundays! Hope you are back soon!
Reading it now!
Where do you find the time to read? You are so busy.
Just finished and loved it.
Already got mine. Perhaps it will hold me until the next one of yours. Yesterday I loaned my German friend your Loyalty. She was talking about the Italian Mafia. I bet I found her a new favorite author
I love Jodi Piccoult! And you!
I'm reading it now- very good; thought provoking as many of her books are.
Have it on my Kindle
On my list. I’ve read all her other books.
Just finished it…I loved every word!

Love your book suggestions! Thanks!
Can’t wait for this! Jodi and you are my top authors. I read everything both of you write. Never disappoints!
Reading it now…
We will be seeing her in Seattle in September!
Everyone, we love Lisa. Try Diane Chamberlain if you haven’t already. She will be another of your top authors. These women are phenomenal.
I've got my copy!
She is one of my favorites too
Two of my favorite authors! Can't wait!
Just did the chat with her at Dallas Museum of Art. Great book and Jodi is tons of fun. This is “the book of her heart,” she says. 📚♥️
