Catch My Drift (eBOOK)

"Genevieve Scott's Catch My Drift is a brilliant novel in linked stories, a mother/daughter tale like none I've read before. Scott writes with a sharp beauty that leaves me not just breathless but wanting more. I love her prose." — Joseph Boyden

"Like the best contemporary novels, Genevieve Scott's Catch My Drift is alchemical. Scott harnesses the flinty realism and breathtaking prose of short fiction, mixes it with the emotional urgency and scope of a layered intergenerational drama and creates a compelling and thoroughly original portrait of the modern family. Rendered with sensitivity and insight, Catch My Drift is elegant, ambitious and tender, a rare novel in which an entire family comes of age." — Nancy Lee

"An affecting novel-in-stories whose cleverness and comic moments intersect evocatively with moments of loss and regret." — Toronto Star

"An ending I feared would be heartbreaking but ended up being perfect and beautiful." — Pickle Me This

"A beautiful and bittersweet life story that needs to be on your summer reading list." — Miramichi Reader

"A compelling novel about a mother and daughter." — Consumed by Ink
