On Mystic Lake by Kristin Hannah

Winter Garden (2011) and Night Road (2011) were the first two books I read by Kristin Hannah. She quickly became one of my favorite authors. Although On Mystic Lake is not a new book, I enjoyed it. Annie Colwater has always tried to be the perfect wife and mother, to the extent she has lost a sense of who she is. When her daughter leaves for school and her husband announces he has found someone else, Annie flees to the small Washington town she grew up in: Mystic. There she tries to regain a sense of the women she once was. As the story develops, there are a few twists and turns that keep the reader guessing as to the outcome. Another good read by Kristin Hannah.
