"It's that rare feat, a tremendous philosophical insight presented in a way that anyone, at any age can grasp! Wow. Of all my childhood books, The Giving Tree and Hope for the Flowers really did change my early world, but after reading Momo in my thirties, I thought, ‘Ahhhhhh this is the one book I wish I had read as a kid! Then re-read at every subsequent chapter of my life.’ Yes, this sounds cliche but I truly think this is essential reading for—here goes—children of all ages!"

What a fantastic book!
 I Loved Jody Hedlund's take on this classic fairytale. It was beautifully done, and really was not that similar to the original story which I enjoyed as the original is not my favorite. Both main characters were detailed and well laid out, with fun and interesting twists that kept me engaged. Highly recommend read this one if you like stories of love, hope, and finding who you are.

*I volunteered to read this book in return for my honest feedback. The thoughts and opinions expressed within are my own.

I have to say that the description of this book does not do it justice.
 Hope in the Mountain River is book 2 in Misty M. Beller’s Call of the Rockies series. This book can be read as a standalone, although I recommend reading them in order as the first book sets the scene for this one. However, there are no loose threads and you can just read this one by itself if you choose too.
“This epic journey is not at all what she expected” is such an understatement

"The plot centers on Count Alexander Ilyich Rostov, sentenced by communist authorities, in 1922, to life imprisonment in the Metropol hotel in Moscow, with the warning, “should you ever set foot outside of the Metropol again, you will be shot.” Within the hotel’s walls, Rostov builds around himself a world of great vivacity and charm, aided by a troupe of eccentric characters including two savvy young girls, with the result that the book achieves that thing all writers hope for but rarely accomplish, a magic that transcends the words on the page."
