Home for Erring and Outcast Girls by Julie Kibler
I was utterly surprised at how much I enjoyed this book. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but Julie Kibler captured my interest and respect with her cutting and insightful novel.

Davis had a nice novel until the last five pages when she throws a it in the toilet. The ending comes quickly and suddenly. It’s as if her editor asked her to wrap everything up with a nice bow. It was saccharine and a little vomit inducing how spoonfed the ending was. Otherwise, it's a nice story combining a mystery with a touch of love and a lot of independent women searching for belonging.
