Written by Shelly Beach
Reviewed by Kathi Macias

There are few writers whose mastery of language captivates me in similar manner to a musical masterpiece or a poignant painting; Shelly Beach is one of those few.

Written by Maureen Lang
Reviewed by M.L. Tyndall

“The prison was in the middle of nowhere; at least that was how it seemed to me”  From this first shocking sentence to the very last one of the book, My Sister Dilly grabbed me and held my heart captive for days. Warning: this is not a book for sissies, or for someone who doesn’t want to feel their gut wrench several times during the reading. This is a story of human weakness, regret, pain, and guilt, but ultimately, it is a story of love.
