Story4.5 out of 5 stars 574
When Carly Sears, a young woman widowed by the Vietnam War, receives the news that her unborn baby girl has a heart defect, she is devastated. It is 1970, and she is told nothing can be done to help her child. But her brother-in-law, a physicist with a mysterious past, tells her that perhaps there is a way to save her baby. What he suggests is something that will shatter every preconceived notion Carly has. Something that will require a kind of strength and courage she never knew existed. Something that will mean an unimaginable leap of faith on Carly's part.

How did I ever miss this book!!
I have read Diane Chamberlin since the beginning of her career! What an excellent story Reflections is!! Diane is such a crafty story teller telling the story of Rachel who hadn't seen her Grandmother since she was a young teenager & not wanting to impose on her life when she struck by lightening! What truths they both learned about the past years sets them both free!!

Would. you just do it already...Or not whatever .
This was a really good story line and it kept me engaged. The ending wrap up was really good. The side stories where even good. However, the constant conversation between the 2 main characters had me screaming "not again. holy shit." Way too much time was devoted to should we ? no well maybe no. If you can hold on and not be annoyed by these two characters and the constant struggle (which should not have been a struggle) this is a great book.

If you like lifetime movies...
This is the first time that I have felt this way about a chamberlain book but I'm disappointed. The narrative was okay, however the story paced on like a slow Sunday driver, it took on vibe of a lifetime movie or even a soap opera. Certainly not my favorite just to far fetched.

A Small Town Love Story
I enjoyed the quaintness of this story located in Amish country in Pennsylvania. There was some heartbreak and twists as always provided by Diane Chamberlain. My favorite character was Grandma Helen. I don’t think Reflection was a dynamic story as some other stories by Ms. Chamberlain. Reflection is a somber, thought provoking story with some life decisions that are tough to make. I would recommend this book if you want to enjoy a quiet and heartfelt book.

Touching with many twists
Rarely these days do I read or listen to a story that really both surprises and moves me. Reflection is one of these stories. The characters are strong and settings are beautifully described. It's nice and long too so I didn't get the feeling at the end where I was left hanging or needing more detail. A very enjoyable listen!
