Someday Home

A Novel

De: Lauraine Snelling

Narrado por: Kristin Kalbli

A heartwarming story that celebrates how life-changing friendships can be found in all seasons of life.

The sprawling lake home Lynn Lundberg built with her husband has been an epicenter of joyful family life, from summer holidays spent around the water, to cookies baked in the kitchen with grandchildren in the fall. But since her husband's sudden passing two years ago, Lynn has been lost in the grief and solitude she feels without him at home. She doesn't want to sell the big family place, but she can't exist there on her own much longer.

After hearing of a new way of living -- where single women share responsibilities as housemates -- Lynn thinks she's found the answer to her prayers. Soon she meets two ladies with whom she could begin this journey. Angela Bishop, a successful real estate agent accustomed to the finer things in life, has just been jilted by her husband of twenty-five-years. Judith Rutherford, who has devoted her adulthood to caring for her ailing father, must leave the only home she's known now that he has passed.

These three women seek a place to grieve, to laugh, and to be renewed. But coming from such differing circumstances, will the new challenges they face undo their plans? Or will they begin a friendship to see them through the years to come in this Someday Home?

Sweet Story

If you could sum up Someday Home in three words, what would they be?

I had just listened to a violent and disturbing mystery. This story was all good, very sweet story, had some spirituality included. It made me feel peaceful, spiritual and calm.....

What about Kristin Kalbli’s performance did you like?

I liked her soft spoken voice.

If you could rename Someday Home, what would you call it?

Leap of faith

I enjoyed this book

I loved the connection of these three families and the struggles they all worked through both individually and together.

Excellent as expected and as always

Lauraine Snelling is as always a poignant writer whose books do not mirror each other just using different names and places, has put together another timely novel that addresses current issues of life through her characters. Though her characters have a deep faith and acknowledgement of God they seem to encounter struggles of faith in a very realistic manner .....

Such a great book!

First off, I live by Cincinnati, OH now but born and raised in Eastern North Dakota until moving here at age 32. I absolutely love Lauraines writing. Love how she puts different towns or areas or Scandinavian words and things I know so well from my heritage and it’s all peppered throughout. Love how there are strong women in so many books and they find their way. Mostly by Faith. Love how people are helping each other just to make it in sometimes bad situations. God planted in ME the love of helping others. Lauraine, I’ve got a life story that would be one heck of a storyline! 😜 One can never go wrong with a Lauraine Snelling book! Thank you!

Enjoyable

How refreshing to read a story about adult friends. This wasn’t a hot romance novel, but a common-life story with great character development and enjoyable people to get to know. I wish there were more such books to add to my library.
