Cry Before Supper - Tapa blanda

Annie Campbell considered herself to be helplessly ordinary. Outshined by each of her four siblings, she slipped behind their happiness and lived in their shadows. Then, in one swift stroke, the family’s joy was shattered. Their closeness unraveled. Their intimacy extinguished. Their future bleak. Except for that one ray of hope—Annie. The one with her heart in her hand ready to give. The one who was there to help. Annie provided the comfort the others needed. She endured and, in doing so, distinguished herself as the light strong enough to lead the others through their darkness. Her strength was extraordinary. This story will envelop you with its rapture. You will experience Annie’s delight as she witnesses her average abilities unfold in astonishing ways.

Julia Rose Grey was born round in the squared-off world of strict, austere parents in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 1949. As a child, she failed to develop precision edges. She didn’t start to embrace her roundness until high school when a teacher praised her independent thinking and satirical wit. In college, she majored in Speech Pathology but, after starting her career as a technical editor, found her way through the ranks to become a military communications program manager. Now retired, she has become thoroughly spherical, writing fiction and living peacefully with her husband of thirty-or-so years in Exton, Pennsylvania.
