A Bookworm’s View
Winter Garden by Kristin Hannah is one of the few books that impressed me so
much that I remembered the title. Beautifully written about the relationship of a mother and
her two daughters. A very human Russian history unfolds within these pages. I found myself
crying, laughing and re-examining some of my own relationships. Wonderful!
So many
books …
so little
time.
