The Holey Land by Laura Koerber
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is another unique and thought provoking read by this author. It is captivating with characters that draw you in and that have fantastic tales to tell. What I really love about this authors work is that there is no fear of mixing reality and fantasy. Making the everyday and mundane seems magical and filled with possibilities. And this story is no different.
Molly is middle aged woman who decides to go on a holiday by herself. She feels she needs to go on a journey to discover herself but she doesn’t know why?
So she now finds herself in Holey land. She can’t explain why, did she choose the place or did something about the place call to her?
We also meet Al, Nate and Anna. These are 3 guides that watch over Holey land and everyone who resides and visits there. They have been part of Holey Island even since it came into existence although their names have changed over the years.
Nate helps people to live, Anna helps people die and Al well he is a law unto himself and does whatever he likes. Just don’t annoy him.
Through the story Molly meets all these characters as they help her on her journey to discover what it is she is really looking for.
This story is a really captivating read. This author never fails to create stories that are thought provoking and magical. I always feel transported when I read stories by this author.
