Mulligan

by J.S. Edwards

A young girl sheltered from everything, including her own name, by her unusual and distant mother wishes that their lives would change. But when that wish comes true, she loses everything that was once familiar, leaving her regretting that she had ever made that wish at all. One day she overhears a stranger say that she needs a mulligan. She clings to the hope of what a mulligan means: a second chance. She sets out on a journey to find this mysterious mulligan, knowing only that once she finds one, whatever it is, it will reverse all the bad in her life. Along the way, she must battle the unanswered questions, anger, and confusion that overwhelm her. The only way out is to learn to trust and open her heart to strangers. But just as she begins to hope and trust again, Tori Galloway enters her life. Tori's arrival threatens to shatter the hope and happiness she has rebuilt and destroy her chances of ever finding a mulligan.

This is one of THE BEST books I have read all summer--and I am not a lightweight when it comes to reading--since I have been home from school, I have probably read in the range of 30 books since June. This one had characters that were relatable and made you feel right along with them---I can't count the number of times I had tears in my eyes or I wanted to reach out and give one of the girls a hug. And Quinn---won't give anything away in this post, but LOVE HIM--his character seemed trivial at first, but ended up being this character with so many different layers that all came together in such a positive way. And Tori--Such a dynamic character that all people could relate to--either knowing someone like her(not because of her experiences, but her feelings) or being her. All of the characters possessed characteristics that made them all likable, but for so many different reasons. From the moment I started reading, I didn't want to stop. The way the story unraveled kept you wanting more! Now, I can only sit back and hope Edwards write another book--AND SOON!

This book was truly amazing. The author was able to develop strong characters that you really connected to. I loved, hurt, cried and felt with them. The story is truly powerful and leaves you not wanting to put it down.

Hope the author has another one coming out soon!!

I really enjoyed the book! It's an easy read with characters I liked, and liked to hate. Can't wait to read what this author comes out with next!
