The book grabbed my attention and held me in suspense as I waited to find out if Grace and her siblings would finally get to fully reconnect with their mother. I did not want to put the book down until I knew for sure. Dr. Theresa Torres, Professor of Sociology, University of Missouri-Kansas City Interesting and relatable story. The encounter with Geneva was compelling, and I enjoyed the writing more and more as it went on. Beta Reader, MA in English Literature There is a saying claiming that those who insist persevere and that is exactly the motto of Reuniting with Mother. Dimitra Manda, BA in English Language and Literature, English Teacher I love this story! It is touching and very well-written. The author's reunion with her mother was very emotional, while evoking some feelings of joy. This story will touch the hearts of many. A must read! Jean Smith, Spring, TX The author understands that her mother has a mental illness, so she is patient, not pushy. Kristen Driskill, Belton, MO I like the author's journey and how she was patient with her mother. Ana Wells, Raymore, MO
