An insightful read
"'Dear Prudence' by EricrCohen is a well written peck into the people's lives that found themselves affected by the world of Rock n' Roll at its height. the characters are well developed and relatable. Their backstories and unique motives or drives adding a layers of color to the story while at the same time not overshadowing Prudence's story. In fact they add to her growth and understanding of her father. Prudence's story in particular really gets the reader to think about the lives of kids who find themselves both blessed and cursed with celebrity parents. The plot is well thought out developed; not seeming rushed at all. Creating a book that throws you in an invested in the characters. Advice I could offer to enhance the book is make sure you make clear when the reader is reading a side character's story and the main story. Other than that the story has much potential."
Dear Prudence
"An easy flowing story line, that draws the reader in and pulls them along Prudence's journey to connect with her famous father. The characters are believable and likable. You want Prudence to find some sort of connection and solace on her journey. You want Gord to understand how to be a father to her. The back and forth between memories and the present day tour, makes the story interesting, there is an occasional slowing down of the pace during those scenes, but it isn't enough to be a deterrent to keep reading. I found the ending a little bittersweet, but I can appreciate that it's probably closer to how things would go in real life, than the typical fairy tale ending I'm a sucker for. All in all great job!"
