More Than by Diane Barnes – Review by Jenni Bishop
More Than by Diane Barnes
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
More than is the first book I have read by this author and I was pleasantly surprised. It is a story about finding yourself once again after a terrible tragedy and becoming a single parent and overcoming the grief. I think most woman who have kids can relate to this story in some ways.
Peggy lost her way after losing her husband. She put her life on hold to raise two young children but at times it felt like she was having a pity party always finding fault with everyone else instead of looking inwards.
On the other hand, she finally pulled herself out of herself inflicted exile and became a stronger version of what could have been all along had she seen what could be. We get to see her metamorphous from down and out and grumpy caterpillar to a learning to love life again beautiful butterfly and this is where the fun begins. There is a lot of bluffing, huffing and puffing going on but it was fun to read and the way Peggy goes about things will have you entertained.
