Review of Coming Home to Starr’s Fall, by Kate Hewitt



In the book Coming Home to Starr’s Fall, by Kate Hewitt, Laurie Ellis has made up her mind to move to Starr’s Fall to start over because she believes that it is her town of origin. Having grown up in foster homes, she now finds herself wanting to belong somewhere. The people here are welcoming and others are grumpy, Joshua Reilly being a good example of the grumpy ones. Life has taught her to be positive, which is the way to go when dealing with him. Surely there must be something buried deep within this handsome, grumpy bookstore manager, who seems to be living in a world of his own, needing no disturbance, even though he is her immediate neighbor. As she settles in this small town, life takes a different turn, making her make several life decisions. Find out more in this book, Coming Home to Starr’s Fall, by Kate Hewitt.

I like how simple yet intense the book is; maybe it's the setting of the story, which is based on a small town. The story draws out the contrast between small-town and city life. The plot is excellent, as it is very engaging, and the author seems to be talented in engaging her readers.

I did not like the gaps between chapters; an example is the gap between chapters 8 and 9. I also found the end to be a bit abrupt, which is likely to leave readers hanging.

I rate this book Coming Home to Starr’s Fall, by Kate Hewitt  3  out of 5 stars for the above reasons.

I recommend to those whose readers who love simple yet engaging books based on small-town livelihood bringing out its simplicity and love, they will find this one quite entertaining. I also recommend it to those with life hurts and scars. The book is about going through life with hope and appreciation despite life's pain and unfulfilled dreams, being grateful for what you have and what you don't have too, because that too can be a blessing in disguise.
