This is a great story. It revolves around 3 generations of women that span a century. Although the story skips into different time frames frequently, it is not difficult for the reader to follow the thread. The best part to me was the mystery in the life of Nell, who tries to unravel her own life's origins. Just as you think you have it figured out, a strange new twist is uncovered and the search must continue. The ending was very satisfying and all the plot twists were neatly tied up. I really loved the author's talent with descriptions and phrases. It made for fresh reading throughout the book. D.
