I'm gradually adding books I've read in 2021 to give a true reflection of the books I've read since keeping records.  This was the first book I read in 2021, and is what kick-started my reading journey having put reading on the  back burner whilst bringing up the children, previously being an avid reader. A book about love and loss and finding love again. It's a story of ruined psychiatrist Dr Julia Carter and a 6 year old girl she finds abandoned in the woods. Beautifully written and great story telling. Fabulous

This is in my top 2 of Kristin Hannah’s work! The story is twisty and engaging. The characters are likeable and easy to root for, but can still make you roll your eyes!
