"L.A. Weather" by María Amparo Escandón ($14)
- What it's about: Set in the midst of a Los Angeles drought, "L.A. Weather" follows the Alvarado family as they're forced to confront their issues, which include difficult relationships, guilt, and the walls they keep up to keep themselves safe.
- What Witherspoon says: "'L.A. Weather' by Maria Amparo Escandón is a unique story that beautifully weaves together the themes of family and weather as we peel back the curtain on the Alvarados and their hidden lives. It's unconventional and so real, I felt deeply connected to these characters and clung to their beautiful moments of hope and togetherness."
