(I originally wrote this review for Goodreads back in February, but this blog was not active at that time. The review is almost ridiculously short, but I remember being so touched by the story I had trouble writing much without loading up with spoilers. This is a five star book!)
The Hideaway by Lauren K. Denton is a sweet sentimental story set in a ramshackle B & B in southern Alabama, moving between the early 1960s and present day.
I thoroughly enjoyed this story of family, love, loss, and finding your way back home again, but at the risk of a spoiler I have to say it is HEARTBREAKING. Grab a box of tissues when you read it, but do read – I definitely recommend.
Yeah it’s pretty short, kind of reads like there’s a couple paragraphs missing there in the middle. It’s a five star book and deserves much better. Soon as I get caught up I hope to go back and flesh it out a bit.
Thanks for the follow, and your kind comment 😊
