![]() Unfortunately, only a few of the people in the small town accept Grace – coming to her only when they want something. ![]() Pearl urges Grace to continue to use her gift regardless of who accepts it and who doesn’t. The only family member who really accepts Grace’s ability is her Aunt Pearl. Her sisters mock her, and her father repeatedly tries to convince her that this is the work of the Devil and that she must stop using her ability. Her family is aware of her ability, but they are not accepting. ![]() Grace believes that The Knowing is a gift from God. It also allows her to speak with Isaac, her twin brother who died at birth. This intuition allows her to read other people’s thoughts (but only if they allow it) and see things that others cannot. Grace has a very special ability that she calls The Knowing. On the inside, Grace is very different not only from her sisters, but from just about everyone else. She lives with her parents, and is the middle child of five daughters. ![]() On the outside, Grace appears to be like all of the other little girls in her small town. The novel is set in the late 1960s, early 1970s in a small town in Michigan. It is a coming of age novel about an extraordinary teenage girl named Grace Carter. THIS I KNOW, Eldonna Edwards’ debut novel, will be published by Kensington Books/John Scognamiglio Book on April 24, 2018. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC. ![]()
