Oh to Grace begins as the required interview of a great
great aunt for a creative writing assignment.
Throughout the novel, we learn more about the family history through
non-sequential stories told from alternating perspectives. In these stories, we learn of the how the
family has struggled and preserved, we read about their tragedies and
successes, of love and death.
I found myself hooked from the beginning and couldn’t put
the novel down. I loved learning more
about the Watson family and found myself transported back to their rural town
in Tennessee. I couldn’t wait to dive in deeper and finally be able to connect
the stories together. To be honest, I
was a bit confused at first by the switching of dates and perspectives but
believe that the author did a good job at interweaving the story together in
the end and was happy with the ending.
Overall, it was an enjoyable read and would recommend the
novel to others.
