Olive, Again written by Elizabeth Strout. Again.
Loved the sequel as much as I loved Olive Kitteridge. Olive is such a quirky woman, lives in Crosby, Maine. And if you live in Maine, you either know or have met someone like Olive. A no-nonsense, honest as the day is long kind of person. Let’s you know just what she thinks of you. Shakes her head at the things people do.
I like the way Strout has written these two novels. They bounce around between residents of the town. We learn something about every one of them, the good and the bad things.
And the one common denominator is Olive. And what I take away from these stories is that all of us touch so many lives. So many. Sometimes it helps and sometimes it hurts. Great story, put it on your TBR list!
