Review: Small Miracles

Small Miracles by Anne Booth
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Anne Booth is totally new to me, so I had no idea what to expect from Small Miracles. But I loved the cover and the description sounded interesting, so I went for it. I certainly didn’t regret it.

I really loved this book. It’s quite different to a lot of the books I read, but it was so enjoyable. It’s centred around three religious Sisters, who have had a tough couple of years with changes and deaths. But it also covers the community they serve. I loved the way that all the characters stories intertwined, and the way that small actions (and small miracles) had such an impact on their lives.

I really liked the characters, especially Sister Margaret and Sister Bridget. I loved the emotional journey that they both went on, and how they learned to better understand each other. Sister Cecelia is a little harder to love, but I feel like there’s some real pain behind her behaviour. Perhaps we’ll find out more about her in a future book?

The story has some very funny moments, and also some moving moments. It made me feel happy and hopeful. I also enjoyed the mystery that the Sisters investigated.

Overall, this was a funny and uplifting story about community, kindness, with the odd splash of romance. I will certainly be looking out for more books by Anne Booth.

TW: grief, but this is an uplifting story

I was given a free copy of this book, my opinions are my own.
