These homemade Twix Bars I created are like your traditional cookie bars, but the cookie (a shortbread in this case) is then topped with a caramel layer and a chocolate layer.

Garnished with finely smashed potato chips instead of the usual sea salt, the bars are the perfect food for Dear Edward.

Dear Edward is the newest novel by Ann Napolitano. While you might not have heard of her before, Napolitano has been an editor for one of the top short story publications in the U.S. for years, One Story.

Dear Edward is a novel about the sole survivor of a plane crash that kills almost 200 other people. The survivor, a teenage boy, struggles to find his place in the world after losing his family and enduring the crash.

In this post, I’ll review the premise of Dear Edward and share book club discussion questions that are sure to get your book club talking!
