desertcart.com: On Mystic Lake: A Novel: 9780345471178: Hannah, Kristin: Books

Review: An Impassioned Novel Of Self-Discovery, Forgiveness, And Most Of All Healing - Let me start by saying that one of the highlights of 2024 for me was discovering this gem of an author! I am an avid reader and have had the privilege of reading many quality books, but no author has been as impactful as Kristin Hannah. Her stories and the masterful delivery of these stories is truly stellar! This story is no exception. Annie is a beautiful, caring, loving, and selfless wife and mother putting everyone’s needs before her own. How she is “rewarded” for being the dutiful wife becomes the catalyst for an awakening that takes her back to her roots in small town Mystic. Her generous spirit transforms the lives of an old friend Nick, and his traumatized daughter, Izzy. The story that unfolds is enlightening and empowering. Ms. Hannah has the ability to transport readers into the story and alongside the characters and the landscape. Her vivid, metaphorical descriptions of the environment create a movie for the minds eye. The characters are extremely well developed and their heartaches, joy, and struggles had me praying for their successful, deserving journey to ultimate peace and happiness. I have learned that Ms. Hannah’s stories demonstrate the resilience of women and the quest to find THEIR place in this world and the struggles of seeking autonomy. I HIGHLY recommend this book. It is memorable and will stay with me not only for a short period of time but literally for a lifetime. Many life lessons to learn. The conclusion will have you cheering for Annie!!
Review: A great love story - Another great book by Kristin Hannah. Honestly, she just doesn’t miss. On Mystic Lake tells the story of Anne, a woman who has been married for twenty years when her world suddenly falls apart. Her daughter leaves for college, and almost at the same time, her husband asks for a divorce. Left alone and unsure of who she is outside of being a wife and mother, Anne sets out to find herself and make sense of her life. Her journey takes her back to her hometown, where she reconnects with the past and unexpectedly agrees to help care for the young daughter of an old love. What unfolds from there is a deeply emotional story about loss, healing, rediscovery, and the many forms love can take. What I love most about this book is how real it feels. The characters are flawed, human, and relatable, and the emotions they experience feel honest and earned. You can absolutely see how this story could happen in real life, which makes it hit even harder. A few quotes that stood out to me: “Stop thinking about what you’ve lost and think about what you have left.” “Love matters. Maybe it’s the only thing that does.” “I didn’t know how deep love ran, how it was in your blood, not your heart, and how that same blood pumped through your veins your whole life.” This is a beautiful, comforting, and hopeful story—one about starting over and finding yourself again when you least expect it. A great feel-good read that stays with you long after you finish.
