Between, Georgia by Joshilyn Jackson
Nonny Frett understands the meanings of "rock" and "hard place" better than any woman ever born. She's got two mothers, "one Deaf-blind and the other four baby steps from flat crazy." She's got two men: her husband, who's easing out the back door; and her best friend, who's laying siege to her heart in her front yard. She has a job that holds her in the city, and she's addicted to a little girl who's stuck deep in the country. And she has two families; the Fretts, who stole her and raised her right, and the Crabtrees, who lost her and can't forget that they've been done done wrong.

Joshilyn Jackson crafts a character-driven narrative that explores the tensions between two families, the complexity of mother-daughter relationships, and the emotional weight of belonging.
