“I felt a connection to this book because of where it takes place. I "grew up" all over the place, but one of the places I spent a lot of time was in a small community in Southern Colorado not far from Taos with the same lifestyle. It was very familiar to read this book--a nostalgic homey feeling. I think I would have liked this book either way, though. I really liked Sunny and I also really liked Gwen. I thought the ending was fantastic because, although I do enjoy fairy tale happy endings, I also enjoy open endings because that's how life is. We don't have just one story to tell, but rather hundreds of stories that can't be summarized in one book. I absolutely look forward to other books by Judith Ryan Hendricks. ”
