I just finished reading Alright, Well I Love You by Sharon Lopez. The author’s style of writing honest truths about relationships, raising children, divorce, and the challenges in life engaged me from the very first page. I read the story quickly, wanting to know more about these characters’ lives – almost forgetting at times they weren’t actual people I’d met. At first, I found myself relating to Annabel – her qualities and strengths, her desire to solve the world’s problems, and even her inability to walk away from an abusive man until she is harmed so brutally it finally makes people take stock. Then I found myself relating to the narrator, Annabel’s mother; here was a woman who had faced divorce and the prospect of raising a daughter alone. Strength runs in these women’s veins! I found the prose down-to-earth. The author doesn’t talk down to readers, but makes them keenly aware of an issue all too widespread. I won’t leave any spoilers, but do highly recommend Alright, Well I Love You.
