    I'd recommend Mother Land by Leah Franqui. I really enjoyed it last month. Your readers might enjoy the cultural discussions (it's about an American newlywed woman living in India) as well as the relationship between the woman and her MIL.

    How did your readers like Dear Edward? I really loved that book but found it emotionally painful to read.

    Lots of great suggestions. I just finished Maybe you should talk to Someone... and I really enjoyed it, even though it was a little slow at the beginning for me. Characters ranging in age - so maybe appealing to your diverse group?

    All of us loved Dear Edward! I was the only one who cried while reading it. The residents didn't which really
    surprised me. The last few chapters were difficult to read.
