The Woman Who Kept Everything by Jane Gilley

4.0

---

I really enjoyed this quirky, different novel about 79 year old Gloria. As years went by after becoming a widow, Gloria becomes a hoarder, living a sad, lonely life, upsetting to her son, Clegg. When Gloria is forced to leave her home, she is counseled and begins to understand why she surrounded herself with things. Gloria starts living life to the fullest, taking vacations, meeting people and turning her story around. With quirky characters and a great storyline, this book is sure to be a favorite.
