Where the Rivers Merge by Mary Alice Monroe

This is the type of book I enjoy the most full of multi-generational stories. Family sagas are my favorite. I am already (im)patiently waiting for the conclusion.

Through Eliza we see how hard it was to be taken seriously, treated fairly, and/or to given the chance to carry on a family legacy other than birthing a male heir. We also see the strength one has when they truly want something. I would love to think I could have been that strong in faith, belief, and character.

Learning about the ACE basin has been enchanting. I’ve Ben to and seen parts of it but never grasped the importance of it. I see it through educated eyes now. MAM has such a way to educate you without the reader getting bogged down. A true writing genius.

The audio book was wonderful.
