Her Sister's Shoes - Ashley Farley (GIVEAWAY!!!)

4 Stars!

ABOUT THE BOOK -
Proves the healing power of family . . .
Set in the South Carolina Lowcountry and packed with Southern charm and memorable characters, Her Sister’s Shoes is the story of three sisters—Samantha, Jackie, and Faith—who struggle to balance the demands of career and family while remaining true to themselves.

Samantha Sweeney has always been the glue that holds her family together, their go-to girl for love and support. When an ATV accident leaves her teenage son in a wheelchair, she loses her carefully constructed self-control.

In the after-gloom of her dreaded fiftieth birthday and the discovery of her husband’s infidelity, Jackie realizes she must reconnect with her former self to find the happiness she needs to move forward.

Faith lacks the courage to stand up to her abusive husband. She turns to her sisters for help, placing all their lives at risk.

In the midst of their individual challenges, the Sweeney sisters must cope with their mother’s mental decline. Is Lovie in the early stages of Alzheimer’s, or is her odd behavior normal for a woman her age? No one, including Lovie, understands her obsession with a rusty key she wears around her neck.

For fans of Dot Frank and Mary Alice Monroe, Her Sister’s Shoes is a contemporary women’s novel that explores and proves the healing power of family.

MY THOUGHTS -
There were so many things I loved about this book! It kinda reminded me of one of my favorite TV shows - Mistresses! Only on Mistresses only two are sisters the rest are best friends. This is a true look at family, sisters, bonding, and love. This book started out a little slow for me but half way through - really picked up and was actually hard to put down! 

I loved how the chapters took turns with the three sisters. Each sister was very different and the author did a fantastic job keeping the personalities true all the way through the story. 
Each one had their problems and through these problems and helping each other, grew closer together! Great character development!

This story was also very suspenseful towards the end and kept me on the edge of my seat - Great job! This is definitely an author I would love to read more of.

  5. I think most of the books I end up loving start out slow. I don't know if that's part of needing time to develop a story and characters, but almost every time I complain in my head about a book starting off slow, I'm completely in love with it by the end (including my current read!).
