Porch Lights

by Dorothea Benton Frank

Audio version

☆☆☆☆

I always find it hard to begin a review. But it is
especially hard when the review is for a rolling,
overflowing story. A southern family, lead by the
larger than life Annie Britt. Her daughter is Jackie. Every bit a
southern woman. Jackie is a strong mother, to young Charlie.
She has managed to find her way out of the south and into the military.
Who would think it?

But now, Jackie is struggling with a life altering tragedy.
Her husband, a fireman, has died. Both Charlie and Jackie
are looking for a path to deal with this. The first path that
comes to Jackie is to go home. To the south. To her parents.
To the beach. To the predictability of her childhood home.  
A good plan? That is what the story is all about.
 

Porch Lights is a story so full. Wonderful characters. Family 
history. Relationships. Mistakes. Shocking moments.
Revealed secrets that will surprise you.
Dorothea Benton Frank has made every word count
in this story. There is a lot to write!
Robin Miles is the narrator. She does a fine job of making
them all sound southern without over doing it. Feelings
come through in her performance.
I liked this audio book and I will recommend it to
people that enjoy listening to sweeping stories.
