Trail of Broken Wings

Forgiveness is the most important part of healing a broken heart. I have never been reminded of this more than when I read the beautiful debut novel by Sejal Badani. As soon as I finished her tender, heartfelt story of family and forgiveness, I turned to my husband with tears in my eyes and said, "This is a book I'll be reading over and over again." 

Trail of Broken Wings is elegant, raw, and cinematic. Called home to their father's hospital bed by their mother, three sisters attempt to rediscover their identities as siblings and slowly begin to piece together the horrible secrets that make up their shared past and present. As their father's mortality hangs in the balance, each woman battles with where she hopes his condition will lead. The emotional memories and demons they uncover are startling but necessary as they heal, bond with one another, and move on with their lives. 

Words can hardly convey my delight at the journey you'll embark on when you first read this novel. Rarely have I been so moved or more compelled to share a book with others. I expect you will want to reread and share it, too.
