The Tumbling Turner Sisters: A Book Club Recommendation! by Juliette Fay

4.0

Catching up…

I read this a while ago…

And…

With this as a recent donation to my Little Free Library Shed, by my Sister of my Heart ♥️Verlie, I am now reminded it is time to include a review for Goodreads.

This story…

Is inspired in part by Fay’s own family history in vaudeville.

So…

It is not surprising that she would write this story with enthusiasm, and attention to the era’s rich history.

And…

The story is told from alternating perspectives of the sisters, Winnie and Gert. Both different in style, but enjoyable to experience.

While…

Most of the story is light with humor, there is a dark turn in the third part of the book. This is when the author showcases the value of family. Family that will literally catch you when you fall.

Readers will experience…

Wit. Wisdom. Love. Heartbreak. Historical “real” moments.

A plot that is fresh and showcases a vast cast of convincing, colorful characters, with their own distinct voice and personality.

A truly class act of a story.
