Taking the journey through Karen and Vals life was interesting. The obstacles and tragedies they both encountered made them
This book was a crazy ride and I really enjoyed it. It’s not my normal genre but the writer was very talented. Would read another book by her.
Plot twists galore as you adventure into a story that has you wondering exactly what you read at the end. Loved the character developed and storyline. I was definitely a little confused at the end but I know that I didn’t see the ending coming. Look forward to reading more by this author.
Karen and Val are sisters and they lost their mom. Karen is working at a nursing home and taking care of their patients. Karen’s talks with Ms. Blout helps with her relationship with her sister Val. Val is hiding a bit with bills from her mom’s house. There’s events that bring the girls closer together. Some of the events are more shocking then others. These two work through their troubles and come out with a stronger bond. This is a great read and so different from others I’ve read. A page turner that you don’t want to put it down.
Moment of Certainty is Pamela Towns debut novel. I didn’t know what to except as she is a new author and I was not disappointed.
Val and Karen are sisters who have lost a key part of their lives, their mother. The loss was not expected but even more so unexpected were the secrets and debts that the sisters gained from this loss. There is a clear difference on how they want to proceed with the situation; one wants to find everything out and one wants to stay in the dark.
The story takes you through their journey as sisters and sees them grown and change along the way. As a debut novel Pamela Towns did a great job. The only thing that I would say could use some work is paying more attention to some details.
If you are looking for something different, grab a copy of this book. A first by this author it took a few chapters to get into to but once I did I liked what a found. Not quite a full close at the end but a good read. I would enjoy another book to get the closure I usually crave in my reads.
Pamela Towns has a winner in her first debut novel. A story of overcoming all odds and finding the truth to be set free. Karen and Val have lost their mother but have gained her debts and secrets. When a letter is found in the floorboards, the truth comes out and it could ruin what Karen and Val have known. Karen is determined to uncover the truth and Val does everything to keeping it hidden.
The debut novel is well written and a page turner. The characters in the story have been written with just enough mystery to keep you reading. I think like others who have read it, the ending seems left open. This story is well worth the read. Well done Pamela Towns. I look forward to more from you.
I really like this story. From the first chapter through to the last, Karen and Val’s stories were gripping and very moving. Val, a victim of terrible abuse and Karen the unknowing daughter, raised as her sister. Karen’s behavior was terrible towards everyone until a resident of the care facility she worked at befriended her and helped her see how her behavior was a detriment. Truly a great book. The ending seemed a bit rushed but the story was a page turner for sure.
I have never read anything from this author before and I was pleasantly surprised by this story!! You get two female protagonists that are quite interesting and they both have quite a story to tell. The story line was well done and easy to follow. The younger sister Karen shows a lot of growth throughout story and it’s very refreshing to see. Humor, secrets and a big old twist at the end keeps you invested in this story from start to finish.
I enjoyed reading this book! It has a little bit of everything romance & suspense and a huge twist!
This was a beautiful heart breaking story about two sisters, Karen and Val. Their journey was emotional and full of intrigue and revelations. The twists and turns kept me on the edge of my seat. I couldn’t stop reading this beautiful emotional story. This was a wonderful read.
This book was about an angry woman who had to make a lot of changes, but the hurt caused her to struggle. The author described the characters and they seemed so real. Full of suspense, secrets, hurt, and about a family going through a struggle. The changes that Karen goes through changes your perception of the book as you read. I like that the author can change your emotions on a dime. Great book.
