Praise for Spinning the Moon

"There is a rhythm to the writing of Karen White. It has a pace, a beat, a cadence that is all its own."--The Huffington Post

"The ultimate voice of women's fiction."--Fresh Fiction

"White's dizzying carousel of a plot keeps those pages turning, so much so that the book can--and should be--finished in one afternoon, interrupted only by a glass of sweet iced tea."--Oprah.com

"This is storytelling of the highest order: the kind of book that leaves you both deeply satisfied and aching for more."--Beatriz Williams, New York Times bestselling author
