About the Book
In the wake of WWII, a
grieving fisherman submits a poem to a local newspaper asking readers to
send rocks in honor of loved ones to create something life-giving but
the building halts when tragedy strikes. Decades later, Annie returns to
the coastal Maine town where stone ruins spark her curiosity and her
search for answers faces a battle against time. (Goodreads)
My Thoughts
This story is such a delight! I have been following Amanda for a few years now, so when I heard about her debut novel coming out I was excited! I knew this story would be good but truly it is a treasure. I loved the dual timeline, I thought it was well written and both stories engaging. There are so many layers with each character and also the themes in the book. The setting is perfect and it made me want to visit Maine. There is an underlying mystery that I thought was well written and it really tied everything together. The romance was perfect and sweet all while being realistic. Yes, this book was sweet but it also held depth that I wasn't expecting. If you are needing a fresh read that will carry you away to Maine this is the book for you!
Highly recommend.
Five Stars.
