I probably enjoyed the book as a whole even more because the "reader" did such a phenomenal job with it. The Uncertain Season is the first book I've read by Ann Howard Creel and I will definitely be reading more by her. The style of writing, her prose was beautiful and caused me to really want to give this book 5 stars. Looking back at the number of highlightings I have on my Kindle, there were many times where it truly resonated with me. However, I somehow felt like I was left with more questions than I would have liked at the end. I am wondering if a sequel will follow or if this is like real life where some stories just don't have happy endings or if they do, we never have the opportunity to hear of them. Overall, very enjoyable read. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Grace, in a reckless moment, reveals Etta's scandalous past, and as punishment, she's sent to work in Galveston's back alleys, helping the poor. There, a silent waif known only as Miss Girl opens Grace's eyes to new love and purpose. She's determined to save this girl who lost her entire family in the hurricane and now slips along the shadows of the unfinished seawall with a mysterious resolve.Soon, the lives of the three young women will converge as betrayal, mistaken identity, and a family secret sweep them toward a future that defies all expectations.
