Search - Time Is a River

Time is a River is a great novel about a woman learning to live as a breast cancer serviver. Mia's sister signs her up for a trip to the North Carolina mountains with a group of cancer servivers learning to fly fish. She returns home to find her husband in bed with another woman. Her retreat back to the mountains and her hunt for the truth about the woman who once lived in the cabin and was accused of murder helps Mia to heal. Mia continues to develop her skills as a fly fisher woman, makes new friends in the area, finds romance and discovers her true self. If you love nature and a good mystery, this is the book for you. It was a page turner for me all the way.

Excellent content. Will be a good book for our book club discussion in February.

Another excellent book from Mary Alice Monroe! This was so well written with such wonderful characters I could not put this down. I want to learn how to fly fish now!

Star rating--4 stars; I really liked it.

Very good treatment of a married woman coming to terms with her husband's decision to get a divorce. She goes to a mountain cabin which serves as a retreat, where she comes to grips with her life, her husband, her sister, and with herself. She basically re-invents herself and comes to like/respect the new person she has become.
Characters are well-drawn; actions are plausible; and outcomes are consistent with life.
I enjoyed this book and would recommend it to anyone. I always enjoy books by Mary Alice Monroe.
