The Butterfly Effect

Description

Is there such a thing as an anti-social butterfly? If there were, Greta Oto would know about it—and totally relate. An entomologist, Greta far prefers the company of bugs to humans, and that’s okay, because people don’t seem to like her all that much anyway, with the exception of her twin brother, Danny. When she lands a research gig in the rainforest, she leaves it all behind.

Greta learns that Danny has suffered an aneurysm and is now hospitalized, and she abandons her research and hurries home. Coming home means confronting all that she left behind, including her lousy, soon-to-be sister-in-law, her estranged mother, and her ex-boyfriend Brandon. Being that Brandon runs the only butterfly conservatory in town, and her dissertation is now in jeopardy, taking that job and being back home is all creating chaos of Greta’s perfectly catalogued and compartmentalized world. But real life is messy, and Greta will have to ask herself if she has the courage to open up for the people she loves, and for those who want to love her.

The Butterfly Effect is an unconventional tale of self-discovery, navigating relationships, and how sometimes it takes stepping outside of our comfort zone to find what we need the most.
