“As the wind blows through our bedroom window, it sounds like a whistling teakettle. As I wake, for a split second, I forget where I am. As soon as I see our suitcases piled next to the closet door, in the exact place where we dropped them, I remember. Etta’s wedding, though it was just one week ago, already seems like a faraway dream.”
This is the first paragraph from “Return To Big Stone Gap” by Adriana Trigiani and it is the final book in The Big Stone Gap series. I am actually re-reading these books and I don’t do that very often. That shows just how much I enjoy Ms. Trigiani’s characters and stories. The people in her books are real. They have flaws and problems, but they also have so much love for each other. I highly recommend this series and any other books by this author.
