Shelley Read, GO AS A RIVER

Zibby interviews debut author and fifth-generation Coloradoan Shelley Read about Go as a River, a spellbinding and devastatingly beautiful coming-of-age story of a young woman who is broken by tragedy but perseveres, set against the forests and rivers of Colorado from 1948 to 1971. Shelley describes her strong ties to the Colorado Rockies, her love of the wilderness, and her journey to publishing this book after more than a decade of chipping away at it while raising her kids (moms don’t have time to write!!). She also talks about her next book, her favorite books and genres, and the plans for a film adaptation of Go as a River!Purchase on Zibby's Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3HgfRpyPurchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/41N1PUUSubscribe to Zibby's weekly newsletter here.Purchase Moms Don't Have Time to Read Books merch here.
