The Love Story of Missy Carmichael

Missy Carmichael is seventy-nine years old. Her husband has been gone for a long time, her son has moved to Australia, and she is estranged from her daughter. She is alone, and life has little meaning for her.

And then suddenly everything changes. Into her life come two strangers and a dog, and together these three begin to return Missy to life.

The loveliest sort of story, a story of the power of love and relationships in our lives.

I don't know what to say, I really didn't know what to expect when I decided to read this book. I have had books that I couldn't stop reading but reading a book all on the same day is a very rare thing for me. This book was a page-turner and it was funny and sad and gives you that warm and fuzzy feeling. Without spoiling it, I hope we all can be like Missy! Loved this book and highly recommend it. It was beautifully written and brought me to tears on various occasions!
