Yonaโs fourth novel, A Wedding in Great Neck, was described as, โA confection that is not only a page-turner but a poignant view of family life...โ by Adriana Trigiani and Booklist added, โMcDonough has assembled a touching, airy novel that manages to meld the concerns of family members spanning four generations into a delightfully well-written storyโฆWith an authorial voice that switches deftly between impulsive teen-speak and a stately matriarchโs flashbacks, McDonoughโs skill is to be commended. A tender, clever story with emotional heft.โ A Wedding in Great Neck will soon appear in Norway.
Yona is also an award-winning childrenโs book author with twenty-two books to her credit and has been the Fiction Editor at Lilith Magazine for over a dozen years. She lives with her husband, two children and small yappy dogs in Brooklyn, New York.
