BOOKS BY ME:
DIRTY SECRET: A DAUGHTER COMES CLEAN ABOUT HER MOTHER'S COMPULSIVE HOARDING has been called "affecting and illuminating," by Kirkus Reviews, "a compelling and compassionate perspective," by Booklist, and "addictive" by Redbook magazine.
"Sholl explores the psychological reasons why being merely a pack rat can erupt into full-blown hoarding. By the end you're sympathetic to both mother and daughter and understand how a parent's obsession can become a child's."
-- People magazine
"Very well written and highly compelling; a story that will doubtless resonate with many readers."-- Shelf Awareness
Suspenseful and novel-like, Dirty Secret is a wonderful, respectful introduction to the world of a hoarder and the tribulations suffered by both the individual who hoards and their family members."
-- Fugen Neziroglu, Ph.D. author of Overcoming Compulsive Hoarding
INTERVIEWS AND REVIEWS
ABC's 20/20 Marie Claire The New Yorker The London Guardian The New York Times
DIRTY SECRET is available at most bookstores, as well as Amazon and Indiebound. You can even invite me to a bookclub! (I love doing these! Everything is possible with Zoom.)

I'm the co-editor of Travelers' Tales Prague and the Czech Republic, a collection of literary non-fiction about -- wait for it -- Prague and the Czech Republic. The process of editing this anthology involved selecting from a large number of possible submissions, editing the pieces, copy editing, proofreading, and even fact-checking when need be :) The finished product still helps travelers get a sense of the place beforehand, according to testimonials. Contributors include Paulina Porizkova, Allison Williams, Robert Glick, and many more!
You can find it in bookstores or order it from Amazon or Indiebound.
