- "In A Scattered Life, Karen McQuestion proves to be an adept chronicler of unforgettable female characters. Poignantly written, she thoughtfully examines how women love, learn, and come to accept themselves and others, as well as life's often harsh realities of deception and loss. Skyla Plinka has all she could ask for at least that's what her motherinlaw Audrey thinks. On most days, Skyla agrees, yet there's a part of her that longs for her freespirited days before husband, child, and the humdrum life of rural Wisconsin. Close friend Roxanne (and the five sons she can't seem to keep tabs on), offers a reprieve, but it isn't until Skyla takes a part time job at her local bookstore that she starts to feel at home in her own skin. Her growing independence causes conflicts with her husband, her inlaws, and even her best friend, but in the end, Skyla learns what it means to love and be loved in this unsure journey called life."
- "Finding the love and stability she has always wanted with her husband Thomas, Skyla Plinka settles into her role as wife and mother, but she can't seem to calm her restless nature after she begins a friendship with neighbor Roxanne, whose life with her five children is in constant disarray."
- "Free spirit Skyla Plinka has found the love and stability she always wanted in her reliable husband Thomas. Settling into her new family and roles as wife and mother, life in rural Wisconsin is satisfying, but can't seem to quell Skyla's increasing sense of restlessness. Her only reprieve is her growing friendship with neighbor Roxanne who has five kids (and counting) and a life in constant disarray, but also a life filled with laughter and love. Much to the dismay of her intrusive mother-in-law, Audrey, Skyla takes a part-time job at the local bookstore and slowly begins to rediscover her voice, independence, and confidence. Throughout one pivotal year in the life of three very different women, each will learn what it means to love unconditionally."
