Wait for Me by Amy Jo Burns
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
I love Amy Jo Burns’ books and Wait for Me was no exception. This is the story of Marijohn who was left in a gas station as a baby, raised by the owner Gus, who is obsessed with and swears that famous folk singer Elle Harlow who has been missing for twenty years, was last seen at his gas station and left Marijohn there.
But then a meteor crashes into the earth and unearths things that had been buried for twenty years. And nothing is the same again.
I loved reading the story of these two women even though the story felt a little too slow for me at times and I didn’t connect with all the music lyrics. I bet this one will be incredible on audio.
With gratitude to netgalley and Celadon Books for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.
