The Light of the World, (Ellen Simpson)

After her grandmother’s death, Eva finds a series of diaries detailing the life of a girl caught up in the magic of the Roaring Twenties. She cannot reconcile the young woman in these diaries with the miserable old woman she loved so fiercely. What happened to change her grandmother so drastically? Eva is desperate to know more about this period in her grandmother’s life.

I'm enjoying this book even tho it started out with a funeral and flashbacks to a suicide attempt by Eva.
