Memorable characters at Booknook

Believable and fascinating characters are an essential part of a good book for me.From that perspective Family at Booknook definitely qualifies. Dave is a lovable curmudgeon. Sparrow is quietly spunky and devoted to her daughter. In spite of her own difficult background she is committed to making a good life for her. As with any family the fate of the characters becomes deeply intertwined. The reader is drawn in to their all-too-human frailities, sorrowing in their tragedies and rejoicing in their ultimate message of hope.

poignant and heart-warming story

This is a beautifully written story about a young girl who had a very difficult start, but yet was able to overcome her past to go on to have a happy and successful life. The characters are so well developed that you feel that you know them as real people. And, you get so involved in their stories that you feel that you are in the room with them. This is a book you read from cover to cover and wish that it went on far longer to learn even more about the characters' lives as they continue to unfold. This is both poignantly written and easy to read.

Story of hope

This wonderfully paced story will keep you turning pages until the final, hopeful outcome. Many different age groups will relate to the multi-generational characters, and the choices they make ring true. This would make a terrific book club selection.

sweet and charming characters

I was instantly drawn into this book and it's characters. Brenda Humphrey Meisels' writing makes you feel as if you are really there. I thoroughly enjoyed reading how the characters and their relationships evolved throughout the story. Despite the obstacles Sparrow, Dave, and Finch experienced, there was always hope. A wonderful read!
