I picked this up as a freebie and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of storytelling. It was poignant and all I can really say is I wanted more. Lorelei's story of growing up poor in Appalachia is familiar and yet all her own. It's a story of a brave determined girl who wants to leave the mountains of poverty and difficult sometimes abusive life she is born into. My only complaint is the story ended too soon. I hope the writer continues Lorelei's story as she faces life with the love of her life and continues to strive for her dreams.Since this story was based on the writer's mother's story I'd expect it was difficult yet rewarding to tell the story.I'm so grateful to have found the story and would definitely recommend it to others.
