I came to read this book because Katherine Owen started following me on twiter,usually when someone follows me i follow them back i clicked on her profile and she was listed as a author so i started checking around and sure enough she has had 3 books published along with some journals.I looked in amazon all 3 books were there so i ordered them.The first book i read was seeing Julia, i really wasn't expecting much as i had never heard of the author and i know the books were never on NY times best seller list or i would of seen them.Katherine Owen probably one of the most beautiful authors ever to publish also is extremely talented as writer i don't know how much of her life is in this book, but it is written as if she lived it felt it and battled the battles she wrote about
I will say this is probably the saddest book i ever read her ability to make you feel the pain, the disappointments and the emotional ups and downs is second to no one so exceptional i think a lot of her is in this book,if she did not live all or part of this,her imagination is amazing.
This book is about a moving, psychological and tumultuous ride through the eyes of a young widow.The story was so grasping, and all of the personas were so easy to love - I quickly became devoted to all of them. Jake and Julia were enchanting, but I also adored Julia's close friends. Her "inner circle", as she named them, is adoring, encouraging, and more than ready to kick your behind when you need it. We should all be so fortunate to have fantastic friends like hers.
The best part of this extraordinary book was the astonishing concept in the story: Acknowledging we aren't perfect - no one is. Mastering to be comfortable with who you are. Just be you.I love this author and i am looking forward to reading her other 2 books, she will have a best seller, if she keeps up the quality i saw in this book it's a sad sad book but a great great read. click the link to read more
