Relation As Books The Beach Trees

From the bestselling author of After the Rain, Sea Change, and The Color of Light...

From the time she was twelve, Julie Holt knew what a random tragedy can do to a family. At that tender age, her little sister disappeared-never to be found. It was a loss that slowly eroded the family bonds she once relied on. As an adult with a prestigious job in the arts, Julie meets a struggling artist who reminds her so much of her sister, she can't help feeling protective. It is a friendship that begins a long and painful process of healing for Julie, leading her to a house on the Gulf Coast, ravaged by hurricane Katrina, and to stories of family that take her deep into the past.

Criticism Out Of Books The Beach Trees

I enjoyed this book; I thought with the cover and the title Beach that it would be a good summer read. And a lot of the story was set at a beach house. I really liked that it was from 2 main characters different perspectives. The older lady, Aimee, and a younger woman, Julie. I think they each taught each other some good lessons and were good for each other. Aimee, I really wanted to be with both brothers, as you could tell that she loved them both. And eventually did end up marrying both of

I just loved this book. Being a huge fan of Karen White, I probably loved the book before I even read it. This author really knows how to do family drama and wonderful, draw you in scenic descriptions. A big bonus if you are a fan of southern fiction.

It took me awhile to figure out if it should be a 3 or 4 star review. My favorite part was the setting more so than the story. Karen has a way of making you feel you are right there in side the book, you can see the devastation from Katrina, can here the surf, taste and smell the food, feel the old southern charm that permeates everything. I lived in Biloxi, Pascagoula and just outside of New Orleans when I was younger and it took me back to that time.I usually do not like the going back in time

I won this book from the "giveaways" here on Goodreads! I have read this author before, and while I liked that book (The Lost Hours) I enjoyed this one even more. This book tells the story of Julie, friend to a recently deceased Monica, who finds herself the guardian of Monica's son Beau. Monica's family is from the Gulf Coast and Julie ends up there looking for a home she inherited from Monica that, thanks to Hurrican Katrina, no longer exists. Instead Julie finds Monica's brother Trey and

The author spins a mystery enticing the reader to want to read more. Julie's best friend Monica, dies and now she is part owner in a beach house in Biloxi plus she is now a guardian for Monica's five year old son. Julie gets acquainted with Monica's family, were secrets are slowly revealed, bringing her into their circle. Wonderful story.

Three stars. Maybe it was the wrong book at the wrong time of year or possibly I was put off by the faint print but I struggled to read this one. Julie Holt's sister disappears when she is twelve and it affects her life. Even as an adult she is constantly looking to find her sister, Chelsea. When she meets Monica, a struggling artist they form a deep friendship or so Julie thought. Even though Monica leaves her son Beau in Julie's care, Julie finds out she doesn't know as much about her friends

hmm. Wonderful, slow moving, lazy read but with a twist. The reader is immersed into the after effects of Hurricane Katrina (and even Camilla), Katrina tree art, and the culture. The read was so languid and slow, I could only give it 4 stars. It was a good bedtime book. Put me to sleep many nights.
