The Road to Bittersweet

Refreshing. Truly...in every way.Humans really do go through some very trying and emotional times. Some very beautiful nuggets in this book.

This is hard to grasp as it is set early 1900's. Everything is so built up and totally different there now. It is a study in the steel rod that is inside all of us if we choose to use it. Very uplifting. I would highly recommend.

I love storm stories and historical fiction, so this one looked good. Long review made short, it was GREAT. I loved the strong main character and the survival story—-kind of like “Hatchet” meets “The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek.” I was reading long into the night like a little kid!

This was a fulfilling read that made my heart sing. Hard to imagine what they went through, yet they persevered. Family is everything.

Well written. I could feel their pain. Loved this book! This would make a great movie. Most people couldn't survive what this Family endured.

The struggles and heartache of this mountain family touched me. It is a good reminder to look to the future trusting that we can become stronger, better people because of life’s challenges.

It was a little corny but had a good ending. I liked that Lack was ok. I'd recommend it to frirnds

Loved the way your amazing story just kept you reading from page one to the last word. You have a wonderful talent! I was so engrossed I didn't want it to end. Looking forward to reading more of your books!Thanks for sharing your amazing talents!.😍😴Now maybe I can get some sleep!☺

I really enjoyed this book. The author was able to draw me in with the narrative of the main character. Her use of the dialect that people living in the area at the time was well written while still maintaining a sense of authenticity.The characters are all well flashed out and written with real emotions and are very real in their own flawed way. Would highly recommend this book.

I enjoyed the last half of this book but not the first half. I found it slow and repetitive. The characters are well developed but the ending was wrapped up quickly and predictable. All in all, not a bad book but not one of the best ones that I have read.
