Now she begins to make friends: Estelle, a 95-year-old woman with a 70-year-old secret, Harper, a 16-year-old high school drop-out who isn't homeless but might as well be, and Sabrina, a pregnant mother whose secret is so big that she won't even tell her husband. As Elizabeth juggles all of her new friends' needs, she meets her neighbor Jeff, and then she finds herself doing something she swore she would never do again.....Full of surprising people with surprising stories, The Natural Order of Things will make you laugh and cry, ponder and hope.
📚🐥 My Review 📚🐥
From the first page, I was intrigued by how this story would play out and was not disappointed! The characters and scenes were well developed and well done. I could easily see it as a movie .Judy does such a great job creating these characters, that they come to life right off the pages. The author is not afraid to tackle grief and explore the consequences of loss. This is a totally absorbing story that flows beautifully. You meet extraordinary and memorable characters that you will fall in love with.It was so good it kept me up late into the night to finish it in one sitting. I literally could not put it down. This is one story that I will never forget! Highly recommended just make sure you have your tissues ready ! This is one book you have to read.
