review 1: If you're a fan of the Yadda Yadda books, you will definitely want to pick up Lucy Come Home, the first in a new series. This is the story of Lucy Tucker and how she came to be a resident of Manna House Shelter. The Jacksons take us back into the nineteen forties and how Lucy's life began. From a teenager, to widow, homeless and carnivals, Lucy Come Home is filled with hope, tragedy, inspiration and God's love. With exceptional character development, characters that are realistic and instantly relate-able, a page-turning tale and wonderful depiction of life in the forties and present day, Lucy Come Home is a fabulous read that I highly recommend!
review 2: Cindy and her family move from Arkansas when the Dust bowl hits and they loose their farm. As migrant
... more workers they work the sugar beet fields in Michigan. When the carnival arrives for Lapeer Days, Cindy meets a young man, Bo and for the first time in her young life she experiences some joy and fun.Cindy is asked to help the boss man, Buster Doyle and things go down hill from there. Bo and her run from Michigan.The book goes back and forth from the past to the present and we see Cindy / Lucy as an older homeless woman who keeps hearing "Come Home" yet she won't. I have been to Lapeer Days as my sister lives in Michigan, and this book brought back some very fond memories. It also broke my heart about our homeless less
