The Prayer Box
The Prayer Box | Lisa Wingate
When Iola Anne Poole, an old-timer on Hatteras Island, passes away in her bed at ninety-one, the struggling young mother in her rental cottage, Tandi Jo Reese, finds herself charged with the task of cleaning out Iolas rambling Victorian house. Running from a messy, dangerous past, Tandi never expects to find more than a temporary hiding place within Iolas walls, but everything changes with the discovery of eighty-one carefully decorated prayer boxes, one for each year, spanning from Iolas youth to her last days. Hidden in the boxes is the story of a lifetime, written on random bits of paper--the hopes and wishes, fears and thoughts of an unassuming but complex woman passing through the seasons of an extraordinary, unsung life filled with journeys of faith, observations on love, and one final lesson that could change everything for Tandi.

A beautiful story set in the Outer Banks. While it was not as not as good as Before We Were Yours, I still enjoyed it. The narration was fine, but nothing spectacular. #AudioJune @Allylu

Allylu This sounds interesting. The Outer Banks sounds lovely right now. 4y

Wow! I loved the ending and didn‘t see it coming (don‘t know if I missed some signals). A single mom finds her own strength as she discovers who her next door neighbor was and tries to save the neighbor‘s home from demolition. @FeatherV I think this is one you, too, might enjoy.

FeatherV @Mshookquilts ooo I love Lisa Wingate I‘ll check it out! 4y

Amazing. This book just "spoke" to me. Beautifully written, I couldn't put this down. The message of hope and love truly touched me and brought me to tears many times.

This story is reminiscent of Nicholas Sparks with its Carolina roots, coastal charm, and a little mystery. I really enjoyed this thoughtful story.
