The Summer of New Beginnings: A Magnolia Grove Novel by author Bette Lee Crosby is another wonderful story about the interwoven threads of a family. Bette Lee Crosby is a wonderful storyteller. Her books are believable, almost as if the characters in the story are living on your block. In The Summer Of New Beginnings, it starts with a summary of Lila and George Briggs. A wonderful couple who have the best of plans for a family and happy life. I will not post spoilers, but read the book, because you may find, when your day seems to be the darkest, a ray of light can shine forth. As the story progresses, we read about the two girls, Meghan and Tracy. They are ready to venture out as individuals with their own personalities and priorities. Then there are a series of events which happen within the family. Life is changed, the family dynamics are changed, and each one must go forward with the choices they have made. Life choices become very real when we have to consider the future of a child in our actions. The emotions of love, disappointment, heartache, fear, and redemption are all expressed in such a beautiful way in this book! Thank you to NetGalley, the author, and the Publisher for allowing me the opportunity to read and review this book.
