Review of Under the Blue Moon
[Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "Under the Blue Moon" by Joan Schweighardt.]
There are different paths to life and different experiences. Everyone has their journey and challenges in life. The book Under the Moon by Joan Schweighardt is a heartwarming story that shows the importance of everyone's journey and how we are all connected in one way or another. The book is written from the third-person viewpoint and starts with the life experiences of the different characters, Lola and Ben, and the sorrows and challenges of their individual lives.
The book starts with the adventures of Lola and her accident. Lola was a dog trainer who lived in a tranquil and peaceful home but wanted more, while Ben was a father who had lost everything due to his divorce from his wife Ruthie and was struggling to change his destiny and take care of his daughter Dolly. Ben was depressed from sleeping in a shelter and in his car. However, during one of Lola's accidents, he was able to use the men's steam shower. He believed his luck had turned around because of someone else's misfortune. What is to become of Ben? Does his life intertwine with Lola again?
I enjoyed this book's narrative as it described each character extensively, giving them their personalities and explaining their backstory. The book taught me that things happen for a reason and to never give up on trying to be better and make good life choices. One of the book's strengths is its vivid and detailed descriptions of the small town and its inhabitants, bringing its people to life with her rich prose and making the reader feel like they are a part of the community. The characters are well-developed and relatable, with their unique personalities and quirks. Another strength of the book is the theme of friendship, love, and self-discovery. The novel is both heartwarming and inspiring, leaving the reader with a sense of hope and positivity. My favorite part was when Ben thought his friend had eaten his cat, Siggy, who was dear to him.
There was nothing much to dislike about this book; it had inspiring themes and controllable suspense. However, there was a pause at the end of each chapter to resume the story of a different character, thereby throwing me off the storyline. The switch wasn't smooth. The book is also slow-paced and lacks action.
I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars. It is exceptionally well-edited. It was captivating and had a lot of inspiring themes and character development. The positives outweigh the negatives. These reasons merit this rating.
I recommend this book to readers interested in a good story and seeking self-improvement through their belief in second chances.
