DYSFUNCTION JUNCTION by ROBIN W. PEARSON - REVIEWED

  RELEASE DATE FEBRUARY 6, 2024 REVIEW: The
three girls—Annabelle, Frankie, and Charlotte—get a call out of the blue that has them spinning. They
are being called home. They have to face a lifetime of memories they have tried
to forget. Memories of their mother’s rejection. Their attempts to hide their
pain must be dealt with. The girls soon learn they can only find their way to
healing by dealing with  the past. They had to be there for each other one more time.

Through
her narration, I liked the depth the author brought to the story by the use of current day surroundings, and childhood flashbacks, make the reader feel as though they
are there   as these young women, learn
that who they were in the past doesn't define who they are now.

This
is a powerful, healing, heart-felt story I could not put down. Parts of this
story hit my heartstrings. It’s a story we all can learn from. If you haven’t
read any of this author ‘s novels I highly recommend this one. It’s one you
won’t soon forget. Dysfunction

COVER: When three women receive an unexpected
phone call that leaves them reeling, they have no other choice but to reckon
with a lifetime of memories they’ve long tried to bury. Only in facing the past
will they find their path forward.

Frances Mae Livingston’s firm grip of her family’s destructive history makes
her hold her husband and four children even closer. But she’s losing bits of
herself while proving to everybody and her mama that she’s enough. There’s no
way she’ll repeat her mama’s mistakes, even if it kills her.

Annabelle McMillan didn’t have trouble kicking the Eastern North Carolina dust
off her feet. The tough part was replanting herself in familiar soil. Now she’s
blending her old life with her new husband, stepson, and unborn child. And
battling old memories of abandonment and new fears of rejection.

Dr. Charlotte Winters has built a career around helping others sort through
their emotional baggage. She’s also spent a lifetime refusing to unpack her
own. So what if Charlotte doesn’t recall all that her mama did to her and what
her daddy didn't do  for  her? Her only mission is to help
others help themselves…until the women from her past and the man in her future
undo her well-sewn life.

At the junction of healed and hurting, broken and whole, and past and present,
three women wrestle with their inability to forgive and forget in this riveting
Southern family drama about sisterhood from award-winning author Robin W.
