Growing up, Kenly Lowen's life was shaped around a widowed alcoholic father who made it clear that he never wanted her in the first place. She emerged from childhood determined to find happiness. Today, at thirty-two, Kenly has a husband and a son who mean the world to her; the kind of life she always dreamed of having.

When her closest childhood friend dies, Kenly is given an old tin box they once shared - a tin box they hid on the roof of a tree house fifteen years earlier. Inside is a secret she has kept for years. To reveal it could end her marriage and shatter her world, but can she continue to shoulder the weight of years of silence?

Kenly's is a story filled with heartbreak, tragedy, and hope. In a small town filled with hidden treasures, young Kenly discovers people who change her life. From terminally ill Tommy, who loves her, to old Max, who shows her that a fire pit is sometimes the best medicine, to edgy Lexie, who believes life should be lived, The Tin Box will take Kenly on an unforgettable journey. The decision she finally makes will test the ties that bind people together against a wound that could tear them apart.

Not really my cup of tea. I'd guessed events well before I read them, it went on too long while the ending was too short (sorry for being cryptic but as a writer myself I noted that). It was really not for me either, being a child-free, bigger person. I certainly felt alienated! I'll pass this on and hopefully the next person will be into this chick lit and simply love it :-)

An absolutely fabulous Easter exchange book arrived at my house today filled with all kinds of goodness including some books to wild release. At the moment, josierivers and I are planning to fill area little free libraries on International Bookcrossing Day (April 21). This book will most likely be set free then.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:

Today, the Red Hat Society Breakfast Club in the Columbia Area met for a "Bring Your Own Breakfast" at the park. First time we've been together in over a year, so you can imagine the talking and catching up going on. While there, I dropped off a few books in the little free library. This is one that I left.
