What makes this one a great winter read
The Invisible Husband of Frick Island by Colleen Oakley is a charming, feel good story that is sure to warm you up on a cold winter day.
What is going on between the covers.
Anders, a young, ambitious journalist, travels to the remote Frick Island to cover their annual Cake Walk fundraiser. He wants in and off as quickly as possible. Something strange is going on, and there is a big story here, and Anders is determined to make it the career-making story he needs.
My Two Cents
The Invisible Husband of Frick Island by Colleen Oakley is a charming story that explores community, the complexities of relationships, friendships, kindness, and grief. I picked it up when I needed something uplifting, different, light, and heartwarming. It was the mood read I needed, and it hit the spot!!
The story's heart is in the relatable characters and their dynamics. They are likable, kind, soft-spoken and most of all, supported, and I love the kindness and support they showed Piper. It is inspiring as it is something we don't often see anymore.
Collen creates characters with unique personalities and quirks that bring heart to the story, humor, and life to the setting. The characters defy those gender roles and stereotypes you might find in a small town. There were plenty of laugh-out-loud moments while reading this one that had me clicking the pages as fast as I could.
The charming small fishing town was the perfect setting I needed, and I enjoyed traveling there from my chair.
