Not Alone is a beautifully written story about Harmony Goodhumor's life. It's very realistic and kind of diary-like and I loved the fact that the reader can so easily relate to the protagonist's everyday life. Harmony does not have an easy life, losing her mother when she was young, Dad re-marrying, with her illness and having serious problems with her marriage but then again that's what a real life is.Life does not always go as planned and it doesn't have to. I think we all have our 'blue' moments but as the message in this warm story says, we can survive out of everything by loving our family and sticking together no matter how hard the times are.Not Alone is also Harmony's sister, Katherine's, story, and having couple of sisters of my own I absolutely loved reading about their relationship. How it grew with the time and how important they were to each other.Chantal Bellehumeur has unique way of writing about 'hard' things with an easy touch and keeping the story flowing no matter what the subject is. I read this story in a flash and found myself in a roller coaster of emotions. An absolute must read!
