Book Description:
Aidyn Kelley is talented, ambitious, and ready for a more serious assignment
than the fluff pieces she's been getting as a cub reporter for the Kansas
City Star. In her eagerness, she pushes too hard, earning herself the menial
task of writing an obituary for an unremarkable woman who's just entered
hospice care.
But there's more to Clara Kip than meets the eye. The spirited septuagenarian
may be dying, but she's not quite ready to cash it in yet. Never one to shy
away from an assignment herself, she can see that God brought the young
reporter into her life for a reason. And if it's a story Aidyn Kelley wants,
that's just what Mrs. Kip will give her--but she's going to have to work for
it.
Debut author Sara Brunsvold delights with this emotional multigenerational
story that shows that the very best life is made up of thousands of little
deaths to self. You'll want to be just like Mrs. Kip when you grow up!
My Thoughts:
The Extraordinary Deaths of Mrs. Kip took great talent and understanding
to write. Brunsvold created a beautiful story of life and death that touched on
every emotion. Clara Kip believes in God and trusts Him in everything, but only
after life had tromped on her heart. Aidyn Kelley wants to succeed as the journalist
she knows she can be, if only the editor would give her the chance. Through connections
unknown to Aidyn, she is given an assignment that involves Mrs. Kip. The more
she learns about the woman, the more fascinated she becomes. If you want to
read a story that tugs at the heart-strings and leaves you with hope, this one
is for you. I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in
this review are completely my own.
