River’s Song by Melody Carlson ~ A Hidden Gem!
River's Song, by Melody Carlson
Melody Carlson’s newest book, River’s Song was the perfect read this weekend! Her story brought me back to my childhood, living in Seattle and camping in many of the parks throughout Washington and Oregon. The setting is a beautiful 40 acre spot on an Oregon river where Anna travels back to her childhood home after the death of her mother. She has the opportunity to mend her broken heart and life through cleaning out the attic, discovering the lost treasures of her heart, from her grandmother Pearl’s beautifully woven baskets to journals that her father wrote partly in Swedish; recording the tales of her Siuslaw Indian heritage. River’s Song is rich with treasures, memories of long ago. I highly recommend it! This is Melody Carlson’s best book to date! What are you reading?
