SUMMARY:PBS Books Readers Club - "We All Live Here" by Jojo Moyes
DESCRIPTION:PBS Books Readers Club welcomes international and New York Times best-selling author Jojo Moyes to discuss her brand-new novel We All Live Here. This episode premieres May 28th at 8PM ET on Facebook\, YouTube\, and the PBS app. \nLila Kennedy’s life is in chaos. Her marriage is over\, her two daughters are acting out\, her house is falling apart\, and her elderly stepfather seems to have moved in. She is struggling to maintain some semblance of a career\, and her love life is anything but simple. So\, when her estranged father- who vanished to Hollywood 35 years ago- shows up at her house\, Lila thinks she can’t take any more. However\, Lila soon discovers that even the most complicated relationships can teach you profound lessons about love and what it truly means to be family. \nWe All Live Here is a heartfelt\, funny\, messy family drama that is full of surprises. It’s a reminder that even the family we think we can’t forgive may have something to teach us about love. \nPBS Watch-Alike: Caregiving\nThis new documentary executive produced by Bradley Cooper is set to premiere on PBS on June 24th at 9p.m. ET. As the aging baby boomer generation and increasing life expectancy put immense pressure on caregiving in America\, the nation’s long-term care system is on the brink of crisis.
