Everything Must Go
This was my first time reading a book by Camille Pagan, and it was such a pleasant surprise. Everything Must Go was a wonderful and memorable family drama that I flew through in one day.
Everything Must Go was a relatable story full of heart and hope. I was really impressed with Pagan’s ability to write a deep story that deals with serious/heartbreaking situations and yet keep everything light in order to not bog down the reader. This story in particular captured my heart and drew me in with the real-world issues Laine had to deal with: her aging mother, marriage issues, and just trying to be true to herself through all of it.
Laine’s biggest hurdle was wanting to please everyone while she was still trying to get what she wants in her own life. There were several times I wanted to give her a swift kick in the booty for putting herself last, yet I understood her dilemma
Overall, this was a quick read with a nice balance of honesty, heart, and thoughtfulness.
Thank you, Amazon Publishing/Lake Union, for this gifted copy in exchange for my honest review.
