“The Winter Guest” by Pam Jenoff
Published by Park Row Books
Finished 5/21/23 – 3.5/5 stars
I definitely enjoyed this one but found it a little too
predictable and the ending seemed rushed.
When you see you only have about 40 pages left to read but a lot of
storyline still to wrap up….there will either be a sequel or a rushed ending. This has the rushed ending. It’s still a good story, I just wish Ruth’s storyline
continued further before jumping ahead to 2013.
This obviously won’t be the same for everyone but with my
Polish background, there were a few words that would just warm my heart when I
read them. It’s not often you find Polish
words in a book written by an American, but it was nice to find Babcia, pieogi,
Wigilia, Oplatek, and the mention of waiting for the 1st star to
arrive before eating Christmas Eve. My family will understand.
