WATSON MANOR MY JOURNEY HOME (4TH IN THE SERIES WATSON MANOR)

Hi, welcome back.

It's been a while since I've posted.  I apologize for the long absence and plan to return shortly with  a continuation of children's reviews.

In the meantime, I wanted to share with you another great adult book in the Watson Manor series, by a dear friend of mine, Ron Craig. The newest title in the series, Watson Manor My Journey Home

For readers who aren't familiar with the series, I'd recommend beginning with the first book titled, Watson Manor, Eventually.  In the first novel,  readers are introduced to the two main characters, Charlie, and Jenny Watson.  Added to the series are a slew of wonderful characters as well as old favourites, enriching each book.


I have posted reviews in previous blogs, titled, Watson Manor, Eventually, Watson Manor Unfolding, and Watson Manor Investigations. 


 Author, Ron Craig






Fourth book in the Watson Manor series:
WATSON MANOR MY JOURNEY HOME


 



Book Review:

WATSON MANOR MY JOURNEY HOME

Watson Manor, My Journey Home is the fourth in the series, Watson Manor. Returning with a new investigation, Charlie and Jenny Watson find that life is anything but routine. All that was changed in seconds after Jenny sustained a traumatic brain injury. 

The story opens in the hospital room, a sterile white space unfamiliar to Jenny as the stranger sitting by her bedside. Confused, she’s introduced to the man, Charlie, her husband. Suffering from amnesia, she has no recollection of the past three years, her marriage to Charlie, or the birth of her daughter, Madison.

All events of the past few years stripped away in an instant, leaving Jenny feeling overwhelmed and vulnerable.  

In the coming weeks, Jenny tries to reacquaint herself with her family and friends as she settles back into the home, she, Charlie and Madison share, Watson Manor B&B.  Pouring over photo albums, she sees pictures of her life, the happiness she longs to remember. In doing so, she works toward rebuilding her life and creating new memories.  

The illness affects not only the person but also their family and friends. Ron Craig shows this well in his newest book Watson Manor, My Journey Home.  

With great character development, he brings in Charlie’s point of view, reflects on his struggles and adjustments faced with in the onset of Jenny’s memory loss.

Both, Jenny and Charlie venture on the journey home together as they work toward rekindling the lost three years of their relationship. In doing so, they find themselves entangled in another adventure mystery with many unexpected twists and turns.   

Nothing can keep this dynamic duo down, and readers will find this so again in another exciting adventure in the Watson Manor series.  

Happy reading.
