Waiting on the Moon

Waiting on the Moon by Kristin Hannah

This book was hard from me to put down from the first page. Without giving anything away, it starts out with a young woman who ends up losing her memories from a head injury. She is taken to an asylum, where Dr. Ian Carrick -a reclusive doctor- takes care of her.
The group, as the author refers to them, of inmates not knowing her name, dub her Selena. Selena has to relearn everything about life, her mind set is like that of a child. Like, for instance, fire bad.
While Selena is relearning everything she is bringing out the best of her fellow 'inmates', as well as their leader and caretaker, Ian. And instead of just living together, thanks to Selena's amazing kind pure soul, they learn to live as a family.
The book is heartbreaking and fantastic all wrapped in a nice package. You end up wanting to root for all the characters! A must read! Two thumbs up.
4/5
