There's just something about this novel, from it's cover art to it's blurb, that struck a chord and I guess my book instinct wasn't wrong. The short of it is: SKIPPING STONES is a beautiful, poignant and somber story about love, life & death, family and second chances. If you enjoy books by Nicholas Sparks, I'm sure you'll love this J.B. McGee novel, SKIPPING STONES shares the same zip code as The Last Song (the novel, not the movie but with less to no angst and minimal drama.SKIPPING STONES surpassed my expectations. When I see themes of death I always expect angst and bitterness and lots of Drama. And though this novel still has that, McGee doled it out in small doses and focused instead on the characters' strengths and how they overcame that sense of loss without losing themselves. SKIPPING STONES is a great illustration of the virtue of hope and faith, I'm sure Alex, Drew and Papa Hart will touch your heart in more ways than one.
