Twenty Wishes by Debbie Macomber is a feel-good, easy reading novel and my first book by Ms. Macomber.
Blurb:
Mourning the loss of their loved ones a group of Seattle widows meet once monthly. As a support group of sorts they draw strength from each to deal with their devastating loss.
*Spoilers*
What attracted me the most to Twenty Wishes was the theme of grief. Having lost two loved ones in a five-month span I was eager to see how the author depicted grief-stricken characters. And, I think Ms. Macomber does a decent job at tackling a delicate subject. In fact, when two of the widows fall in love again the author sends a powerful message: We can live and love again.
Another thought-provoking concept was that of making a list of twenty wishes. I think making a list allowed the widows (and others grieving in real life) to hope again. I’m considering starting a list of my own .
The story line in Twenty Wishes is authentic and the characters credible. Regarding conflict and tension, there was little of it, so I can say much to that point. Of the dozen characters portrayed in the book several were underdeveloped, but somehow the story flows anyway.
Twenty Wishes is charming and likable. The book is a worthy read for anyone going through the grieving process. I give Twenty Wishes three stars.
