About Interrupted: A Life Beyond Words
Product Description “Sweeping epic” –Booklist “A feel-good story for both heart and soul.” –Kirkus Reviews “An impressive debut.” –Publishers Weekly Can love really heal all things? If Sam Carroll hadn’t shown up, she might have been able to get to her mother in time. Instead, Allie Everly finds herself at a funeral, mourning the loss of her beloved mother. She is dealt another blow when, a few hours later, she is sent from Tennessee to Maine to become the daughter of Miss Beatrice Lovell, a prim woman with a faith Allie cannot accept. Poetry and letters written to her mother become the only things keeping Allie’s heart from hardening completely. But then Sam arrives for the summer, and with him comes many confusing emotions, both toward him and the people around her. As World War II looms, Allie will be forced to decide whether hanging on to the past is worth losing her chance to be loved. Review 'A feel-good story for both heart and soul.' - Kirkus Review ( Kirkus Review) 'Coker writes an emotionally compelling and psychologically nuanced tale. The plot has some weak spots: Allie manages to overhear not one but two crucial incidents that give her unexpected information, and some of her character development late in the story is abrupt. But the historical context is an engaging narrative frame. Coker is one to watch.' - Publishers Weekly Review ( Publishers Weekly Review) About the Author Rachel Coker is a homeschool student who lives in Virginia with her parents and two sisters.
