Review of The Book
Jenny, Molly, and Beth, three young sisters born from their mother's second marriage, reside in a modest home they consider their haven. Within this space, they experience comfort and a shower of love from extended family members, including Grammy, their father's mother, Jamie, and Danny. However, as the girls transition into adulthood, they face shared struggles that prompt tears during intimate discussions, particularly when confronting Beth's descent into a drug-addicted lifestyle, causing the family to endure alongside her.
The Book: The Story Of Red Tail Hawk by K.A. Morini and Amanda Beth Randall is a family journal capturing the emotions, challenges, and bonds shared by a group of sisters as they navigate the complexities of growing up, all while highlighting the profound impact of drug addiction on a family.
My connection to this book stems from the author's skillful use of language and sentence structure that evoke readers' emotions, allowing them to experience the author's joys and pains alongside her family, especially with Beth. Narrated from Jennifer Ann's perspective, the book delves into her early life before Beth's birth, detailing the circumstances surrounding Beth's journey into adulthood, and the palpable impact she has on her family and friends. The book serves as a repository of valuable lessons, shedding light on how society should approach and support individuals struggling with drug addiction for their genuine and lasting recovery.
The author's ability to vividly depict scenes from Jenny's family life, even during her childhood, adds depth to the narrative. A significant takeaway from this poignant piece is the need for compassionate treatment of drug addicts to facilitate positive impacts and contribute to their sincere and permanent recovery.
While the book's impact is undeniable due to the author's effective conveyance of thoughts and messages through appropriate writing style and tone, it falls short of a perfect rating due to numerous grammar errors. Consequently, I would rate the book 4 out of 5 stars. I recommend it to those who appreciate true-life stories that evoke emotions and inspire a reevaluation of societal norms and personal behaviors.
