The book was an interesting read, with strong female characters. Not enough in-depth about the relationships of the Earthshine Girl. There was quite a bit that could have had more clarity.

I continued to read, hoping I would get more clarification on the characters, but I did not. Perhaps it was just the author's writing style. However, I did enjoy reading the stories of Opal and Nona between 1910 and 1986, and the struggles of all the women during those times.

A book based on a true story of an explosion at a dance hall that alters not only the lives of the twin sisters, but the lives of everyone in this small town of Possum Flats.
Family secrets, love lost, suspense and plot twists. The authors descriptions of some characters seemed spot on.
There were some wow moments, that I did not see coming. Great read for any book club. I would recommend this to anyone.

The book was very intriguing from the start. The women in the book, in my mind, all had "gifts". Each and every one of them had a challenge of their own. Each character/women were very strong, especially living in that time period. The descriptive location throughout transformed the reader right there. The book would be great for book clubs for further discussion. It was a very good book and I wonder if this is going to be a series.
