Helpful Score: 3
When rating or evaluating something, I rarely give the highest mark. It has to meet all the expectations I have as well as the goals and objectives set forth. A book would really have to grab me in topic, characters, readability, and realism. This book does. I give it 5+ stars.
The characters are real. The situations are accurate. The plot is honest. Everyone of us is on a path of self-discovery. Sometimes we end up on this path by accident realizing, only after the journey is well underway, what is happening. sometimes we purposely plan an set out on it. Alice Marlowe's journey begins with a misdialed phone number and the plaintive, scared voice of a six year old.
They journey together along separate paths. With the entrance of Larissa into Alice's life comes challenges that strip away the veneer of her life and gets at the soul of who she is. This is an easy read with a powerful message that forced me to examine some aspects of my own life.
