This week's book pick is Somebody Everybody Listens To by Suzanne Supplee.

Retta Lee Jones spent all of high school waiting to graduate so she could leave her small town of Starling and move to Nashville. She always dreamed of being a country music singer, following the footsteps of Patsy Cline and Dolly Parton. When Retta finally does get to Nashville, it seems like bad luck meets her at every turn. And then as things begin to look a little better, a devastating phone call causes Retta to head immediately back home. Willa Retta have to give up on her dream completely?
