Seeing Things: A Novel by Patti Hill

Mon, 21 Sep 2009 16:39:22 -0400

crnfva's review: "Birdie is a lovely, eccentric lady, who has visions, due to her degenerative disease, that affects her sight. This doesn't stop her: she hikes, she is extremely social, she even has a love interest in an adorable younger pharmacist. When she falls from the stairs and break her ankle, though, she moves from her little town to the more comfortable home of her son. It's immediately clear that the family (beside the son, a too busy wife and a teenager grandson in distress) will need Birdie's wisdom and good humor, not to mention her visions, to go through this hard time. The story is feel good one, with a lot of good sentiments: but they are perfectly balanced by a quirky sense of humor, plus it's incredibly well written. It makes you want to re-read Mark Twain, which is definitely a plus."
