The Worry Knot by Mary Bleckwehl – Review by Lorrene Huisman
The Worry Knot by Mary Evanson Bleckwehl
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I had come across this book with intention to enjoy it, I did not expect to fall in love with this book or this author! But I truly did! I am moved by the words on the pages, it really got to my heart. It was a story I think all of us should read. I can not get over how amazing and thought through this was. It was different, than what I expected at first glance, I seriously am saying you need to read this, do not miss out!
As a sister of a brother whom is a wondaful boy, but gifted in a special way. (He is autistic) I really was moved and touched by this book. It really got to me. Having a sibling that is considered different and seeing how they act and have to view the world. And how the world views them. The aspects of how to view the world, and seeing how every family isn’t picture perfect was a wonderful view. I think it was a big eye opener for everyone that reads this. Even for me.
Another aspect I really enjoyed of this book, was that it was not all butterfly’s and unicorns. The family itself dealt with issues, emotions, and most of all, worked through everything as a family. It was powerful. It was realistic. It felt real, the feelings were real. This book really touched my heart and it is one I will not forget, and I will defiantly re-visit again. It is one that is well wroth a read and then some.
Loved this amazing novel and the amazing author who created it so much. Thank you to them for creating such a impacting story that warmed my heart in more than one way. I highly recommend the book and author. It is a must read. I highly say everyone needs to read this, no matter what.
