Review for The Still Life of Hannah Morgan





Hannah Morgan's life is at a standstill. Her dreams of becoming an artist vanished with the sudden death of her grandmother and mentor. To appease her distant and disapproving mother, Hannah gets a respectable job at a high-end day spa.
 Instead of painting masterpieces, Hannah spends her days painting nails and giving facials to wealthy women. Her dreams for the future have become a hideous nightmare. And it just keeps getting worse. She catches her boyfriend cheating, loses her job, and has to watch from the sidelines as her best friend, Jasmine Blue, goes after her own dreams of owning her own salon.
 Then she meets Aaron, a working artist, and finds in him a kindred spirit. And, to her surprise, she finds the courage to follow her dreams. When circumstances beyond her control threaten to destroy both her relationship with Aaron and her dreams of a bright future, Hannah fears her mother was right-that some dreams aren't meant to come true.









“As a small child I dreamed of growing up to be a chestnut mare. I was terribly disappointed when I found out people couldn’t magically transform into animals but I got over it by immersing myself in the world of fairy tales and thus began my lifelong passion for reading and make-believe.”

My Review: I enjoyed this book quite a bit. It was unique and difference from most of the books I've read recently. It was easy to relate to the characters and to follow the story. I liked that it was not extremely emotional and yet because Hannah was in the situations we are all in at some time in our life, the emotions were there for the reader. There is one scene that gets a bit heated but it is behind closed doors and, unlike most sensual scenes in books, it actually was needed to help move the story forward instead of just there for the sex. I was very pleased with this book and definitely recommend it - especially for anyone who feels trapped, like Hannah, and wishes for a glimpse of hope.
