Amazing Grace by Lesley Crewe
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This writer impressed me. She could take a very horrible topic and bring us to the brink, but then turn it around to the point that we felt hope.
Amazing Grace has lived for fifteen years in a trailer with her friend, Fletcher. It is a platonic relationship, but she is contented.
Over the many years she has often tried to find her estranged sister and mother, having been abandoned in a commune when she was a child.
The story takes us through Grace's life and its turmoils. I love how no matter how bad things seem, Grace always can pull herself up and make the best of things.
A great read.
