From the bestselling author of We're All in This Together comes a novel about family, friendship, fame, and the cost of living in the public eye -- because when everyone suddenly knows your name, it's easy to forget who you really are. "The first time they met, Mags saved Ava's life. The second time they met, Ava saved Mags's."      Ava Hart is the most reluctant cast member of a reality TV show based on her big city family's (mostly staged) efforts to run a B&B in small-town Nova Scotia. Every family has its problems, but Ava has grown up seeing her family's every up and down broadcast on national television, after the show becomes an unexpected success for reasons that will take a heavy toll on the Harts.     Mags Kovach is the charismatic lead singer of a struggling Halifax rock band hoping to be the Next Big Thing. For years she's managed to contain her demons and navigate the uglier aspects of being a woman in the music world, but after a devastating loss, she turns her anger on the only person she can: herself.     As their private tragedies continue to set social media and tabloid headlines on fire, their every move subjected to an endless stream of public commentary, it will be their unexpected friendship that will save them. They will push back against the roles they've been forced to play, and take back control of something they thought they'd lost forever -- the right to their own stories.… (altro)

Amy Jones is a Canadian writer, whose debut novel We're All in This Together was a shortlisted finalist for the Stephen Leacock Memorial Medal for Humour in 2017. That, and the fact that part of the premise of Every Little Piece of Me was a family living in a reality TV show running a B&B in Nova Scotia, prompted this to appear on my library reserve list.

I haven't read of Jones' humour but I think it would be her stronger work, having been nominated for the Leacock Medal. This was a straight thriller and not really a very good one at that. (Although I may have mentioned that thrillers aren't really my thing.) Nonetheless, I persevered to get to every little scrap of Nova Scotia I could (not many). Sorry, Amy. ( )
