Where the Stars Still Shine
heather says:
Calllista Catherine Tzorvas, better known as Callie, is about to go back to what her life should've been. Stolen and on the run for 12 years; Callie has no idea what a normal life is supposed to be like. The Greek-American background of Tarpon Springs takes her by surprise as this new life is thrown at her, while the previous one is ripped by the seams.Where the Stars Still Shine is a heartbreaking, yet romantic novel. The story left me with many questions, but I still felt satisfie...d by the end. Many of the characters from Callie's large family seemed unimportant, but did end up moving the story along.This book caught my attention. I recommend it to more mature readers who are up for a plot twist at any given moment. I recommend this book to people who also may be able to connect to the tragic events that took place throughout most of Callie's life and readers who can read an entire book in one sitting.
