Between Gods by Alison Pick came from Harper Perennial and TLC Book Tours for a blog tour.
The role our religion plays in our lives and how it defines us is fascinating so this memoir of a woman raised Christian who discovers her family was actually Jewish and fled the Holocaust promises to be thoughtful and thought provoking.
Pretending to Dance by Diane Chamberlain came from BookSparks PR.
Can long buried secrets sabotage a woman and her husband's quest to adopt or even more basically, destroy their marriage? I look forward to uncovering the secrets and seeing how all of this plays out in this novel.

Between Gods sounds really interesting. So many do define themselves by their religion, and how shocking it must be for someone who defines themselves as "Christian" to learn their family were actually Jewish Holocaust survivors!
