During the horrible recession, DOWN AT THE GOLDEN COIN’s main character, former airline pilot Annie Mullard, feels she has sunk to new low when she is forced to go to a run-down laundromat, The Golden Coin, after her washing machine breaks, but it’s here she meets a messiah named Violet. Even though she can read minds, send Annie into past lives and levitate Tide with Bleach Alternative, Violet isn’t anyone’s idea of a messiah. But Violet is equipped with the wisdom, love and humor to help Annie find a way to a more authentic life, one in which Annie’s free to create her own reality and where money is not the key to happiness.
Review Rating: 4 LIGHTNING BOLTS
Review; You never know who is going to be the one to help change your life when all else fails. Annie is down on her luck, at a crossroads, and struggling with many things. In the form of quirky Violet, Annie's world is about to change....
Kim Strickland has a lighthearted tone in her writing, and this book was quite enjoyable. I loved the messages that were part of this book. The characters really brought the story to life, and the plot moved along well. It's a quick but fun read. I'm glad I had the pleasure of getting this book for review. I'm interested in what else this author has to offer.
