When the Cranes Fly South: A Novel
by Lisa Ridzén
When the Cranes Fly South (7/3/2025)
I was fortunate to receive an ARC copy of When the Cranes Fly South by Lisa Ridzen from @BookBrowse.com. This book was without question a five star read for me. I cannot recommend it highly enough. I've read many books this year and this one is at the top of my list.

Mature autonomy, elder-care, family relationships, friendship, nature, and the struggle to decide what to forgive and what to fight all play a part in this beautifully crafted novel. We will all, if fortunate enough, reach an age when these concerns will be reckoned with. Read this book with these things in mind; you won't want to put it down and will no doubt want to share it.
