Review: Mourning Dove

Mourning Dove by Claire Fullerton
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Reviewed on Behalf of http://bookaddict.live,
This Audiobook is told from the point of view of Millie who grew up in sixties and seventies American south. Millie and her brother spent their early life in Minnesota until their alcoholic father caused there parents to separate. So suddenly they find themselves in Memphis where they their mother finds herself back home at 79 Kensington Park. Millie and Finley slowly learn to navigate this strange new world. Finley can’t wait to get a way and pursue his musical career. Millie always relied on Finley to make her life more bearable.
Especially when have to learn to live with their Stepfather who wants to control everything that goes on the house. This is slice family life and how every changes as we become adults. This is a compelling account of sister, daughter and wife’s changing relationship with her brother Finley. I far as was concerned the narrator is Millie recounting  her from childhood until today. As I’m English this is a wonderful window into the up and downs of  Millie’s life in the American South.

I received this audiobook as part of my participation in a blog tour with Audiobookworm Promotions. The tour is being sponsored by Claire Fullerton. The gifting of this audiobook did not affect my opinion of it.
