We’re going on a road trip! It’s inspired by author Colleen Oakley’s relationship with her grandmother, who had a “wicked sense of humor” and mandatory 5 o’clock cocktail hours. It winds its way through two women’s friendships at very different times in their lives. The movie Thelma & Louise and a hectic cross-country drive with her husband and four children helped Oakley add to the adventure she hopes will help readers “escape and have a good time” and “think twice about an elderly neighbor or an aunt or anybody they could start a friendship with.”
