"Kalayla: Unraveling Tangles is an exceptional piece of storytelling that captures the complexity of family relationships, identity, and resilience in a way that is both touching and humorous. Jeannie Nicholas has a unique ability to blend difficult topics with humor and warmth, and the novel is truly a remarkable achievement," said Scott Hughes, founder of OnlineBookClub.org.

In Kalayla: Unraveling Tangles , readers are introduced to Kalayla LeeRoyce, a spirited 12-year-old biracial girl, her hardworking Irish mother Maureen, and their Italian landlady Lena. Set in Cambridge, Massachusetts, between 1999 and 2002, the story weaves between the three women's perspectives as they navigate the challenges of identity, family secrets, love, loss, and the healing power of unlikely friendships.

The novel's unique structure told through the alternating viewpoints of its characters Kalayla, Maureen, and Lena, invites readers to explore deeply personal experiences. Kalayla's rebellious nature and fierce protectiveness of her mother are juxtaposed with Lena's wisdom as a retired CEO, who finds herself stepping in as a surrogate grandmother to the young girl.

Jeannie Nicholas, who wrote the novel from a place of personal reflection, expressed her happiness in seeing the book's theme resonate with readers. "The characters came alive in a way that I never expected. As I wrote Kalayla, they spoke to me, and I couldn't stop until their stories were fully told. It is humbling to see the novel recognized in this way by OnlineBookClub," Nicholas said.

Hughes also shared his admiration for the way Nicholas brings these characters to life. "Jeannie's deep empathy for her characters is evident throughout Kalayla. She has crafted a world where the personal becomes universal. The women mentioned in the novel are not just fictional characters; they represent the struggles, triumphs, and growth that we all experience in one way or another."
