A Scattered Life

 Fiction by Karen McQuestion

https://www.amazon.com

Apparently this book was first released as a self-published book on amazon kindle, and the author has since written many books. A lot of her stories are exclusive to amazon, although I did get this one at my local library.

This novel centers on Skyla, a young woman who finds security in marrying and settling down in a smallish Wisconsin town after a lifetime of traveling around with her father. Skyla forms a strong friendship with her neighbor Roxanne, who has five children and embraces the chaos of life. I'm not sure if the title refers to Roxanne or Skyla, or both of them. Both of them are realistic characters and interesting to read about.

This was a very good book with some surprises.

I also read recently by this author: The Long Way Home
