“When teacher Laura Gantt comes home to Prospect, Georgia,
to settle the household of her recently deceased mother, the last thing she
expects to encounter is a swirl of rumors about the father she lost to the lake
twelve years ago---that he has reportedly been seen around town. Elliott Gantt’s
body was never found and he was presumed dead.”
A Stillness of Chimes by Meg Mosely is a contemporary, Christian,
fiction. I really enjoyed this novel by Mosely. It took me a couple of chapters
to get into it for some reason but once I did I was sucked in. I love books set
in the south because I can identify with them being from the south myself. I
love novels by Mosely because I feel like I can walk right into them. She does
a wonderful job introducing her characters and making them come alive. She
includes so many sights and sounds into her novels and if you have read any of
my past reviews this is something I look for. I want to be able to be
transported to wherever the story is taking place. I want to be able to imagine
myself there. I can do this with her book.
A Stillness of Chimes is set in Georgia and has an air of
mystery to it. Although, if you are an
avid reader I’m not sure there are any great surprises (but there are a couple
of things that happened that I didn’t see coming). I still found myself wanting
to see what was going to happen next. Mosely throws a little bit of romance in
there for all of us romantics out there. Her book is all about friendship,
love, trusting, forgiveness and following one’s heart.
I would recommend this book to anyone who loves romance and
mystery. If you love Meg Mosely’s books this one will not disappoint you she
comes through with another great one.
I received this book from Multnomah at no charge in exchange
for an honest review. I also received a copy from www.booklookbloggers.com for review . (It had been a while since I read it and had forgotten but as I started reading it again I remembered it) I really like her books.
