Chasing Petalouthes (The Gift Saga Book 3) by Effie Kammenou (narrator Emily Lawrence)

Thank you @EffieKammenou @lovebookstours for letting me be part of this tour and for reviewing this book. I was lucky to recive Chasing Petaloutles by audio and this is the 3rd book in the seris. You can listen or read chasing Petaloutles as stand alone book if you have not read the other two. The front cover is beauful. This is heartwarming read and it was lovely to be back with Evvie and her family again. i feel like the characters have been part of my family and loved going on there journeys with them and there struggles. They have all been through hard times. The story is written well and the plot really good. I was sad the story has ending but I was very satisfiend with the ending 5 stars. I really liked listening to the narrative she was really engaging. Blurb The Gift Saga concludes with the next generation coming into the forefront of the story during their tumultuous years between adolescence and adulthood. *Read as a standalone or as part of the trilogy Evvie has lived through more tragedy than a young girl should ever endure, having lost both her father and a most beloved grandmother at a young age.
