review 1: Although I was a little concerned regarding the storyline of Life Without Summer where a mother has to deal with the hit and run death of her 4-year old daughter, I was still intrigued. Not only do you see the viewpoint from the grieving mother but you also see the side of the counselor that she enlists to help her with her difficult situation. Along with the counselor's narrative dialect you get pulled into her disfunctional family life. While reading the book you will see the mother become a very strong protective and confident woman that the counselor ends up learning so much. You will be extremely surprised and total captivated when you get to the end of the book. I am looking forward to reading more of Lynne Griffin's books.
review 2: One word for this ... morenovel: lame. And the really sad thing is...I predicted the ending within the first 30 pages. Overall, I have felt no connection to any of the characters..all of these characters were whiney and unrealistic. Boo hoo this and boo hoo that. That is pretty much the gist of the whole storyline. I couldn't wait to finish this book. And I hated how suddendly the author threw in a whole another storyline at the end. less
