Carry Me Home


(sorry about the blurry image...the only one I could find online)

****
PG
{TMP?}
Easily Recommend

This is probably not one I would have picked up on my own but my mom had bought it and loaned it to my grandma and she had really enjoyed it so I decided to give it a try.
The {TMP} rating is barely there...just a tad more than I'm comfortable with.
The story is sweet, sad and took a turn at the end that I had contemplated, but didn't really think would happen...if that makes any sense...
It is a book of forgiveness so there is quite a bit of religious reference...just in case that bothers you for some reason.
I was not familiar with this author at all and this is the first of a trilogy so I looked it up on Amazon expecting to see at least the second if not all three books available.  (This one was published in 2015).  However, this was the only book listed under Dorothy Adamek so I googled her and found a blog.  Her mother was diagnosed with cancer a couple of years ago and just recently passed away at the beginning of this year.  She referenced in one of the posts how caring for her mother had kind of put her writing on hold but is hoping to get back to her untold stories soon.  I sincerely hope she is able to as I would definitely be interested in reading the rest of this series.

  2. Just finished this book. Loved it--even though it unexpectedly made me cry. Such wonderful characters!
