“Stones Corner: Turmoil is exemplary in its structure, organization, and pacing. The structure of the chapters/parts aid in a compelling organization of the story or information. The pacing is even throughout and matches the tone/genre of the book.
The reader is immersed in the author’s sense of place and time. She uses the landscape of civilian, urban war to provide vivid emotional and sensory connections as violence erupts in all parts of life. She also finds a cadence and flow to the dialect which spills into the pacing. There is also a sense of family, humor and warmth.”
