Love is not something that once you find it, you get to keep it
forever without question. "Five Island Diaries: Stories of Love,
Lost and Found" is a tale of why, a lively memoir of author and
professional woman Martha McCarty's life with humor and wit,
tragedy and loss, but with a focus on love and how McCarty struggles to
find it and keep it after losing it once before. "Five Island
Diaries: Stories of Love, Lost and Found" is highly recommended as
a touching and heart wrenching yet still hopeful tale, for community
library memoir collections and for anyone who needs a similar heart to
read about.
