Things We Wish Were True

Genre: Contemporary Fiction

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I was completely enchanted with Sycamore Glenn, ready to sell and move to "The Glenn".  It seems like a wonderful place filled with beautiful interesting people.  I really enjoyed Maribeth's writing style and hearing the story from each characters point of view.  Summer is my favorite season and I totally found myself at the pool, working in the yard with Zell, and sitting in the dark feeling the dew fall at the pond with Cailey.  Perfection!  Throw in a missing teenage girl, infidelity, creepy and peeping neighbors, along with a runaway wife and a near drowning event; seriously it could not get any better.  I recommend this wonderful book to anyone who loves the Fourth of July and the heartbreak/joy of friendship lost love, and dysfunctional life as we all know.  You will not be disappointed.

Thank you NetGalley and Amazon Prime Kindle First, for the opportunity to read this book for a fair review.
