...moreAdventure is the last thing on Andrea Henderson's mind when she moves to Moses Lake. After surviving the worst year of her life, she's struggling to build a new life for herself and her son as a social worker. Perhaps in doing a job that makes a difference, she can find some sense of purpose and solace in her shattered faith.
For new Moses Lake game warden Mart McClendon, finding a sense of purpose in life isn't an issue. He took the job to get out of southwest Texas and the constant reminders of a tragedy for which he can't forgive himself.
But when a little girl is seen with the town recluse, Mart and Andrea are drawn together in the search for her identity. The little girl offers them both a new chance at redemption and hope--and may bring them closer than either ever planned. from Goodreads.
Not the best book I've ever read. It was ok. I wasn't drawn into the book, didn't feel any real connection to the characters, and overall, it just didn't stand out from other books I've read.
Yes, it wasn't my favorite book ever, but it wasn't terrible. I tend to have issues with cookie-cutter Christian fiction, and, comparatively, this book is good.
Charley’s off to Scotland with her new beau, and Scotty and her dad travel to Maine in search of Scotty’s mom. When they land on her mother’s last known trail, will their questions finally be answered? from Goodreads.
Goodbye Hollywood Nobody is the last book in the Hollywood Nobody series. Scotty has changed so much since the beginning; she's grown up, and made new friends. In this last book, Scotty and her father set off to search for her mother. Charlie's in Scotland, and it seems like all the pieces of the puzzle will fall together.
Let's do this one in a list, since I frequently think in lists and it seems appropriate to wrap up the series this way.
1) Seth. Seth, Seth, Seth. It's just...weird. I'm not sure I liked what happened with him. Maybe I just didn't read it close enough and missed something, but where did Angus go? He seems to have disappeared. In my humble opinion, Seth is too old for Scottie, and their relationship feels too weird to me.
2) Babette. Not to spoil it, but I wasn't pleased with the way this one turned out. Just a little too sad for me.
3) Charlie. Yes yes yes yes. I highly approve of the way her part in the story is wrapped up.
Overall, I really enjoyed this series. It was a fast read, but one that I enjoyed. Scottie's quirky personality was one that I really loved reading about, and, when she wasn't being judgmental, she was a likable character.
Many thanks to NavPress for providing me with this series!
