5 Stars for Empty Nesters by Carolyn Brown! Find your big fuzzy blanket, wool socks, and quiet corner to dive into this one. This is the perfect "feel good," read as fall quickly turns to winter. This book was charming, funny, heart-wrenching, and everything you want this time of they year.Three military wives have lived in the same neighborhood since their girls were 5. Now, following in the footsteps of their fathers, they've all signed up for the military given their mamas a lot to deal with. The mamas will have to lean on each other and their neighborhood granny, Tootsie to get through all the feelings that come with divorce, death, second chances, and acceptance. When they all pile in Tootsie's RV, they embark on a journey full of equal parts laughter, tears, and strength. They remind us that home is what we make it, with those we love. And, that with the right friends beside us we can weather any storm life throws our way.
There was a lovely surprise at the end, one I was hoping for and the way Carolyn captures the voice of her Texas characters is charming and just right.
If you're looking for a lighthearted, warm, and feel-good book, this is it. This book was released earlier in the summer but I'm really glad that I didn't dive into it until now.
I was provided this book in exchange for an honest review by @netgalley and @carolynbrownbooks. I'll be looking for more of Carolyn's books and suggest that you do the same :) #TheEmptyNesters #netgalley #5stars #bookreview #booklover #instabook #instareader #bookstagram #bookaholic #readmorebooks #tistheseason #bookworm #oakcity #booked #montlakeromance
