Great summer family saga book, one of those that you can’t put down/turn off. I’m a bit torn as I wanted more Sadie, felt she deserved more center stage on who she became, who she was away from all the BS. But I understand with family sagas that’s often how it goes.

Stories like this really hit home on how incredibly different life was for women ages past,how much has changed yet how much stays the same…

As before, it’s a great summer read, there’s lot’s one will wish could have been extended on, some missing threads to make one actually care about some characters, and other characters that your mind will want to create its stories about. My 4 star happened on the last few pages…Sadie

If you like stories about strong women mixed with a bit of mystery and love, you'll like this one. This book was free on Amazon First Reads for September.

TW: rape

I thought this would be another free Kindle fluff read, my second by the author, and it was a waste of time; I strongly considered quitting when the graphic rape of a fifteen year old girl occurred and now that I've finished, I wish a had. What a waste of time.

Lots of poorly written quasi-erotica that might be pleasing to some (lots of swollen pregnant boobs, boob grazing, and tension feeling

A southern tale of secrets, family, and friendship. This is told thru alternating time lines of the 1940s and present day, which the author detailed well. It is an engaging and interesting read, it grabbed my attention right from the start, and held me captive throughout. The details of how women and wives were treated in the 40s was at times shocking, and made me thankful to be a woman of the present day.
