A Lovely Read
Every now and then a book comes along that you just love. You can't wait to get home at the end of the day, pour yourself a glass of wine, curl up on the couch and drift away. I have just finished reading such a book. "Good Grief" by Lolly Winston is the book. I often find when reading it also involves what you bring to the book. Your own personal experiences. How you relate to the main character. The lead character, Sophie Stanton, is rebuilding her life after her husband dies. Finding herself starting over again at the age of 36, finding herself doing things that she never thought she would and beginning to love her life again. Anyone who has had to rebuild their life, regardless of the circumstances, will appreciate the honesty, the humour, the tears, the joy of rebuilding a life. A highly recommended read and an exceptional first novel.
