Greensleeves - A Classic Coming-of-Age Novel
Greensleeves by Eloise Jarvis McGraw follows eighteen-year-old Shannon Lightley, who has spent her life traveling across Europe with her actress mother and journalist father. Despite visiting Paris, Milan, and London, Shannon realizes she's never truly found herself.
When offered the chance to stay in Portland, Oregon, Shannon takes on an undercover assignment for a law firm. Working as a waitress under an assumed name, she investigates a group of strangers contesting a substantial inheritance near the local university.
A Story of Self-Discovery
For the first time in her life, Shannon is entirely on her own. Through the long summer days in Portland, she navigates independence, identity, and the question of who she really wants to become. This authentic portrayal of a young woman finding her place resonates across generations.
