The Key to My Heart by
Lia Louis was a wonderful and unique story about one woman’s journey from grief
to hope. This was very different from
most books I’ve read, and I loved the characters and the journey.
Natalie Fincher lost her husband
due to an accident. It’s been two and a
half years since he died, but she can’t move on. Her friends and family all think she needs to
move on, but she still feels lost. She
has lost her spark for life. She doesn’t
really love the cottage she lives in anymore but can’t leave because it was her
and her husband’s project. She was a musician
but doesn’t work in music anymore. She
has started to play music on a piano at the train station and mysteriously has
been finding music left in the piano bench that had significance to her and her
husband. Who is leaving the music and
why? As she starts to get out there and
try to heal, she meets two interesting men.
Is she ready to move on with love?
The Key to My Heart was an
honest look at grief and going through the grief process. It was a good look at can you find “the one”
after you have lost “the one?” How do
you move on? When will people stop
looking at you like you are broken? It was a good book about friends that stick
with you and friends that aren’t sure how to act when something like this
happens. I like how Natalie was able to
find support and make new connections. I
connected with Natalie even though I haven’t been through this experience. It was a very heartfelt book with great
characters. I will definitely be reading
more by this author.
