Winter Garden by Kristin Hannah
I know that some of you have already read this book and loved it. If you have not, I think you definitely should. I enjoyed not only the Russian history in the book but also the varying perspectives of each of the characters. These characters immerse you into a world that I never encountered but found truly realistic. My favorite part of the book is it's message-love is ever-changing and gets us through challenging and stressful times. Enjoy!

By the way, Kristin Hannah has many other inspiring books. Definitely read True Colors and Firefly Lane.
ReplyDeleteKristin Hannah did a great job in telling this story. Taking a real life historical event and turing it in to a story that bleeds joy, heartache and strength. Russia's history has always been a violent one up until recentally, the fact that she could tell bring historical issues to light in such an uplifing book is remarable. The storry of two daughter learning about their mother's past to explain so much about not only her but also themselves. A woman who can endure so much loss in ones life and still have the strength go on is truely inspiring.
