A touching story of the power of friendship and coming of age.
Mary Beth and Rusty become pen pals in school, and continue their correspondence into their teens, but as time goes by they lose track of each other. Each enduring their own heartbreaks, and finding their own way. The story is told in the present and past, through various means, like letters, and a screenplay.
Written in beautiful prose, the story wends through the years and miles, in this compelling read. I will admit that the time jumping was a little confusing at first, but once I found my bearings I was hooked.
Overall, a well written read, with a compelling story of friendship, coming of age, grief, forgiveness, and restoration.
I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
