My Review
Red-tailed Hawk by Nancy Schoellkopf was a well written coming of age story that was in a single word magical. Mariah Easter was my favorite character in the book as she was a strong female character who was willing to create her own life path and to take the road less traveled. I greatly enjoyed reading about her as she grew and developed as a character.
The author truly crafted an amazingly well written story that truly inspired me. I am so glad that I took the time to read it and I look forward to reading Yellow-billed Magpie by Nancy Schoellkopf.
Thank you so much for featuring my book on your blog! I'm so happy you enjoyed it and found it inspiring. Many blessings!
