Home Again, by Kristin Hannah
Genre: Contemporary Novel
Sensuality: 6
Have you ever read a book that made you want to live the best
life ever now? Not yet? Well, Home
Again may do it for you. It did not read like a romance novel at all, though it
had a romantic thread running through it. It made me reflect on my faith a
little, but it’s not a Christian/Inspirational book by far. It is a bit of a
tear jerker though. And it does make you question the ‘life after death’
debate. So if you are not into stories like that, you may not enjoy Home Again.
Home Again revolves
around Madeline and Angel, two successful adults in their own right, who were
once upon a time, childhood sweethearts. They find themselves being forced to
reconnect when Angel is forced to go back home after years of separation from
the only family he has left. In this story you see how they both let go of the
past and heal through the unplanned and unintentional help of her daughter and
his brother.
When you read this story it will be no mystery about how it unfolds. However, the true beauty of it is how the author goes about showing us. It is heart wrenching at times, but yet quite real. I love when I finish reading a book and ask myself questions. And it just so happens that this book has a reader’s guide at the end to do just that.
This is not a recent novel. But if you can find it, I think
you would enjoy it. I happened to have found it at a local fair.
5/5
Happy Reading
