6 posts | 6 read | 4 to read
Set against the natural beauty of the San Juan Islands in the Pacific Northwest, acclaimed author Cathy Lambs latest novel tells the emotionally compelling story of one womans life-changing discovery about her past . . . As a child, Evie Lindsay was unnerved by her premonitions. As an adult, they have become a simple fact of lifesometimes disruptive but also inescapable, much like her quirky, loveable family. Evies mother, Poppy, and her aunts, Camellia and Iris, are well known on San Orcanita island for their free-spirited ways and elaborately decorated hats. Their floral shop and Evies bookstore draw streams of visitors all summer long. This season promises to be extra busy: Evies sister, Jules, is getting married on the island. As Jules plans her unconventional wedding, she arranges to do a DNA test with her mother, sister, and aunts, to see how much accepted lore about their heritage holds true. The results blow apart everything Evie has grown up believing about herself and her family. Spurred on by the revelations, Evie uncovers the real story of her past. But beyond her feelings of shock and betrayal, there are unexpected opportunitiesto come to terms with a gift that has sometimes felt like a curse, to understand the secrets that surrounded her childhood, and to embrace the surprising new life that is waiting for her . . .

I hate to pan a #NetGalley book- especially one that I feel like is so targeted so book lovers... but I wish that I had bailed on this one rather than plodding on all through the redundant scenes, details that didn‘t matter and the meandering telling rather than showing style. Evie may be #haunted by her premonitions but I‘m haunted by the time I wasted with this one! #ScreamathonPhotoChallenge #TeamStoker 6pts #Scarathlon
