I read the reviews on this book before I bought it and found them quite mixed. I guess our unique differences is what makes the world go around. So many seemed to find the book “boring” and lacking in a plot. I very much enjoyed it. My love of genealogy found it so wonderful that a mother would put her young life into words for her daughters to carry with them and pass along through the years. It helps, also, that I live in the Traverse City, Michigan area and am very aware of the beauty of this area. I love the way the author writes and describes things with a bit of humor around the edges. I believe the plot is - remember the trials and tribulations of your youth for they are what makes you the person you are today. The decisions Lara made in her youth were not always the best but, ultimately, she realized what was really important to her and went on to live a happy, fulfilling life.
