What it is

Featured in People magazine “Zibby Owens writes like a woman with her life cracked wide open—and the courage to look straight inside. Between Chapters is funny, tender, unflinching, and so deeply human." —Jen Hatmaker, author of Awake

From the national bestselling author comes a heartfelt, humorous look at a book lover’s life in relaunch. Bestselling author Zibby Owens is known for sharing relatable moments with a warmth and openness that make readers feel seen. In Between Chapters, she offers a front-row seat to her decade of reinvention as she goes from being an Upper East Side stay-at-home mom of four to a divorced and remarried “book-fluencer,” author, publisher, award-winning podcaster, and bookstore owner.

Laugh alongside Zibby as she shares moments like messing up “the birds and the bees” talk, getting stuck climbing an inflatable raft at her kids’ sleepaway camp, and traveling with her new love. Join her in the forty-something trenches as she gains and loses weight, gains and loses friends, makes a zillion mistakes, and finds ways to turn grief, divorce pain, communal tragedy, and the anticipation of an empty nest into moments of connection.
