Thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for the ARC of this book in exchange for my honest opinion.
I love reading Shipman’s books. They are so varied in content. It makes me want to visit Michigan.
I recommend this book based on the strong characters, storyline and the way it made me feel.
4 stars

Hits the heart in so many ways and in many directions. He brings my love of Michigan and it’s people into every word he writes. No one says it better..

Viola Shipman!! What else is there to say!
I have never wanted to visit Lake Michigan as much as I have after reading this book… I want to experience the blue hour, the tunnel of trees, the mysteries of the lake, and of course Fata Morgana
Strong ladies, generations of strong ladies, the past leading to present. Friends from long ago, new friends, past relationships, new relationships,… Hope, love, peace, change.
“ each generation of women, adding something “
I loved this book, these characters, the story, I laughed , and I cried, and I could not put this book down!

A very nice, feel good, book from Viola Shipman. I enjoyed it, although it was a little too light for me, with more filler than I have patience for. Still, enjoyable!
