Somewhere in the archives of crudest instinct is recorded the truth that it is better to be endangered and free than captive and comfortable. ~ Tom Robbins, Another Roadside Attraction

Review: The Wednesday Group

The Wednesday Group by Sylvia True
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I enjoyed the characters and the story...up until it just stopped. I feel disappointed with the ending, or to me what felt lack a lack of ending.

I loved it.
I had picked this up several years ago and just couldn't get that far into it, I suppose it wasn't ,my time to read it yet. Last week I saw something on Facebook about it, and then several other mentions as well. I took that as omens to try again, I'm glad I followed the omens.

Wow. Such a beautiful story of love, family, and finding yourself. I loved it.
Make sure you have lots of tea handy as you will want to drink some while reading it...and maybe some whiskey too.

Well, I can safely say I didn't see that ending coming but what a great finish to the series.

Review: Sisters One, Two, Three

Sisters One, Two, Three by Nancy Star
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This was my December Kindle first pick. It’s a very sad story that sort of has a happy ending. But it really makes you stop and think about family secrets. I’m still trying to process this one, not really sure if I liked it or not.
You have an overbearing mother with children who have to learn to watch her moods and are basically afraid of her. The father tries, but you can tell it’s never enough. It’s a family that wants to be happy but somehow always falls short.
