The Thing About Home by Rhonda McKnight
5.0
Sometimes good things fall apart for better things to come together!!! This was such a heartwarming story about finding yourself, love, family, history, and new beginnings.
From the start of the book we’re drawn in by the FMC Casey Black being placed into an intense situation. Her picture-perfect vow renewal results in her being left at the altar ending seven-years of marriage. With her life now in shambles Casey leaves New York in hopes of finding long-lost family in Georgetown, South Carolina. Running away from the chaos will allow Casey to do some soul searching and seek answers about her past. Along her journey she not only finds the family she’s been missing but a new love interest that reminds her what it truly feels like to be desired and wanted.
I loved the dual timelines and learning about the history of the Black family. It was so tender and heartfelt to see Casey experience what it’s like to have a grandmother with so much wisdom. All of the characters we so rich and complex with their own personalities. I was definitely rooting for Casey and Nigel I loved the way the author brought them together.
Overall, the book was amazing definitely worth reading. The pacing and plot were steady throughout. We see Casey go from a place of uncertainty to find happiness, purpose, peace, and a sense of belonging. The author wrapped the novel up beautifully leaving her with a happily ever after. Special thanks to the author, @thomasnelson, & @hearourvoicestours for my gifted copy and to be apart of this tour!!!
