"Cattail Lane" by Fran Kimmel is a heartwarming novel touching many important subjects within its pages. We have a teenage boy caring for his grandmother but with her failing health they need to move her down to dementia facility. We have a dad who didn't know about existence of his son and now he needs to step up and do his best. There is a beautiful combination of various characters and each of them will tug the strings attached to your heart.
This book was a very fast read and I still can't believe how much had happened in the story. Characters developed, secrets has been unravelled and truth had won in the end.. Uplifting story making us to realise that small acts can make a massive difference, that some things can't be rushed and some stories are better when left unfinished

Thanks to Netgalley and ECW Press for this early copy.

This book was a bit messy and I kind of felt like i was thrown right in. It was very all over the place which made it super confusing. I think if it was organized better and explained better it would have helped. Then the ending was also super rushed and I felt lost . Overall I think this book needs more work.

Thank you to NetGalley, the author, and the publisher for this complimentary ARC in exchange for an honest review!!

Felt like I got thrown into a story that missed th beginning. Lots of struggles and good story. Then it seemed unfinished at the end. Rush through the story with his parents and then the love story that started two thirds the way through just stopped. Where is the happy ending?
