Title: Looking Within and Beyond
Review: A Gracious Plenty is the story of Finch who was badly burned and disfigued as a child. Finch is fiesty, often stubborn, and can communicate with the dead. After her parents die, Finch assumes ownership of the graveyard where she tends the dead.Finch is a woman that had socially isolated herself. She has no friends, but everyone knows her. Her scars are what sets her apart. Instead of feeling saddened and desperate, Finch is often hostile. It is through the hostility that she hides her pain and longing for true relationshipsA Gracious Plenty explores the need for relationships and how people must look both within and beyond what they initially see. Finch is a character that must first accept herself before others can accept her. Follow Finch as she communicates with both the dead and the living and begins to grow beyond her personal and social demons.A remarkable novel from Sheri Reynolds, her immagination and creativity do not seem to know any bounds.
