Has a few twists and turns yet some of the book is predictable. Kept my interest. ( ) Thank you to Robin Kall (her IG page) and the publisher for this book. I'm a big Danielle Steel fan and I've loved all of her books so far that I've read. It's predictable but enjoyed the many things there were happening with Melissa, her sister (the nun), Hattie who she reconnected with after years and the people involved in their lives, especially Melissa and her lonely life in the Berkshires. Everyone has decisions to be made in life, and Melissa gets her life back after losing her 10 year old son to a brain tumor, losing her husband to divorce. Too many things to describe and I don't want to repeat the plot. A good read overall from Danielle Steel. Finding Ashley is the newest novel by Danielle Steel. It is a story about family secrets and tragedies that forever changed two sisters’ lives. The books has Danielle Steel’s trademark writing that draws the reader right into the story. The story has steady pacing and developed characters. I was not a fan of the repetition of key details. Some details are repeated at least six times in the first half of the book. Finding Ashley is an emotional story. Melissa Henderson has a good life until her son died within two years of being diagnosed with cancer. The loss of her son destroyed Melissa. She retreated into grief and withdrew from life. It has been six years and the only person she allows into her life is her contractor. After auditioning for a role in Hollywood, Hattie, Melissa’s sister, joined a convent. In a way, she also withdrew from life to a place where she felt safe and could find peace. When Hattie became a nun, it divided the two sisters. While Hattie is aware of Melissa’s secret, Melissa is unaware of Hattie’s. Hattie wants to help her sister and sets out to find the child she was forced to give up when she was sixteen. It takes Hattie on a journey that will change the two sisters’ lives. Finding Ashley is an emotional story about two women finding their places in the world. Arson, illness, teen pregnancy, convent baby mill, sexual abuse, and divorce are some of the topics covered in Finding Ashley. There are some sweet, tender moments as well. I loved the descriptions of Melissa’s restored Victorian. I would love to own a Queen Anne Victorian (I love the ornateness associated with this style). This is a special story that addresses some difficult topics. Danielle Steel has provided another compelling novel (I have been reading this authors books since I was twelve). I look forward to reading her next release. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
