I think I know the Petersons

A page turner! I feel I know each of the characters in some form or other, especially Ziedonis. Typos (e.g.- red and black current bushes) could use some work in the next edition. I'll def read more from this author.

Whaaa! I want a sequel!

I can't stand it. I am upset. Here I feel like I lived in these characters shoes during the most important events in their lives and now I have to actually wait for a sequel to find out what happens to conservative Andrejs, to colourful Klara, to crazy Ziedonis....ah, I trust there will be a sequel, Sandra??!! Sandra, don't do this to me. Please...would a tantrum help!? Great story. As a Latvian-American-Canadian ,it was easy to identify with the first generation life-style of the struggling and Latvian...trying to come to terms with living "here" but belonging emotionally to "there" and trying to make sense of it all. A fantastic read. Thank you, Sandra. I am waiting...
