A review by sinclairkatelynn
Where the Stork Flies by Linda C. Wisniewski

3.0

For a debut fiction novel, this was a pretty good book! I wish the back did not mention the "wisecracking medieval queen", as that spoils something about 3/4 through the book (I did not guess the ending, however). I am Catholic, but I had never heard of the Black Madonna, so I appreciated learning more about my own religion.

Overall, I loved the way that Kat grows as a person and becomes more three-dimensional by the end. In the beginning, I disliked her. I felt like her entire personality was dependent on her failing relationships with her daughter and husband, her resentment towards her mother for abandoning her, and her denial of her affair with Chuck.

By the end of the book, Kat grew into herself. She accepted that her husband was cautious about restarting their relationship and she has begun fixing her relationship with her daughter. She starts to create her own relationships, instead of depending on others to be there for her.

While I did not love this, I genuinely do believe this is a great debut fiction novel for the author!

Thank you to the Author and to Kate Rock Book Tours for providing me an advance copy of this book.
