The Maplewood Inn is a loving, complicated story of sisterhood, of family division, of old secrets being revealed, and the consequences of those relationships that were endangered by the past but have a chance for a far different future. It’s the kind of story that grabs you emotionally and has you nodding as you think, “yeah, I completely understand her, because I’ve been there and felt that, too”… no matter which sister is speaking at the moment. Some might call this a generational story, and in some ways it is; but to me it was a story of three estranged sisters, each with their own valid reasons, finding their way back home and back to each other, their sisterhood being healed and strengthened. In some ways, their stories will break your heart. As you read each sister’s healing journey, you’ll find yourself engaged and somewhat intertwined in Margot, Nina, and Sadie’s path to lasting healing.
I got completely caught up in The Maplewood Inn and enjoyed every moment spent in this world. It’s well-written, engaging, and emotional, with enough mystery and romance to keep me flipping pages. The characters are well-defined, realistic, and completely believable. Every family has its own unique dynamics and secrets; with that in mind, it’s easy to understand why each sister reacts as she does, and how important healing is to them all. I’d not hesitate to recommend The Maplewood Inn to any reader who enjoys a somewhat complicated dynamic between the characters, a touch of mystery, and the satisfying sense of a story well told by the final page.
*I received an e-ARC of this novel from the author or the author’s team via Booksprout, and I sincerely thank them for their trust. I chose to leave a review with my personal opinion of this book.*
