In Grace's Time

In Grace's Time is a beautifully written book about loss and grief and friendship and love.  Grace has lost herself after the death of her 15 year old son.  She is weary, not coping well, generally falling apart, and not being there for herself or her family.

After a series of coincidences lead her to the opportunity to take a road trip with a friend she just met, she puts herself back together piece by piece along the way. 

I enjoyed the perfect mid-America kitsch and the wonderful descriptions of the tourist attractions and giant flea markets along their road trip in a giant land barge of a car.

It is a very sweet, gently written and honest book.  It's one which will stay with me.

Wonderfully written; highly recommended.
