Critics Review
2023 Readers’ Favorite Book Awards Finalist in Fiction (Literary)2023 Firebird Book Awards First Place Winner in Literary Fiction2023 Firebird Book Awards First Place Winner in Women’s Fiction“Lee Bukowski’s debut novel is a page turner that depicts an unflinching portrayal of a marriage through the eyes of addiction. The characters are relatable and the story shows it’s impossible to know what goes on behind closed doors in any family, even one that looks perfect from the outside. A Week of Warm Weather is an engrossing, heartbreaking, and probing novel.” —Leslie A. Rasmussen, award-winning author of After Happily Ever After “As I drilled into A Week of Warm Weather, I wondered if love could be that blind? In this emotional page-turner, Bukowski transports us into the downward-spiraling life of a young mother struggling to face her husband’s addiction and her own abandonment. The true-to-life cast of characters and harrowing storyline kept me in my chair, grinding my teeth, until this heartbreaking family saga reached its conclusion. An engaging, gripping, and thought-provoking debut to be sure.” —Valerie Taylor, international award-winning author of What’s Not Said and What’s Not True
