Once in a Blue Moon by Eileen Goudge Book Review

by BuckDaddy on October 23, 2009

OnceinaBlueMoonI love reading books.  I read all sorts of books.  I read mystery novels, business books, marketing books, and non-fiction.  If you are a PR person and you ask me to review a book, I jump at the chance.  That is why I was super excited when One to One Network contacted me to do a review Once in a Blue Moon, I said yes.  I had been looking for some new fiction and I am always looking to try new to me authors and expand my horizons.  I was not disappointed.

Once in a Blue Moon is a novel about two sisters with not so great mother. When their mother is sent to prison for drugs, their friend and next door neighbor, Miss Honi Love, an ex-exotic dancer, tries to help them.  Eventually, the girls are sent to foster care and separated.  Thirty years later, the sisters are reunited, and both are completely different.

I got to say I was a little hesitant about this book.  I even wrote it off as chick lit and tweeted my thoughts.  The author, Eileen Goudge, tweeted back that it wasn’t chick lit!  So I decided to go in with an open mind.  After the first chapter I was hooked.  Goudge does an excellent job of keeping her readers hooked into her characters’ lives.  The book is all about relationships and trust.  I really enjoyed it and if her other books are anything like this one.  I will be picking them up.

Disclosure: One to One Network gave me the  book and I got to keep it.  My full disclosure policy is up at the top.
