How important is it for a (small) mentally unstable kid to have someone she can completely trust ? Someone who would help her be a better person ? Someone who would understand her, and help her fight her odds ? This sensitive issue is stirred in ‘Magic Hour’ by Kristin Hannah.
This story is About Julia Cates, A Successful Child Psychiatrist, until an incident shatters her confidence and
Career. Having failed to recognize her client intention of shooting other members of Church Youth Committe, She is held responsible for their death.

Nothing no longer as dear as saving Alice and discovering her true-self, Julia fights back with all her might, And thus starts the tale of Love, Hope, Emotions, Happiness, Relationships, Loss and Triumph.
Kristin is one of my Fav authors, I love her style and her aura. Each of her book holds the amazing treasure of Emotions and Hope. Her stories are often very close to Human-self, without creating a tale which sounds good, but is hard to imagine or believe. Kristin in ‘Magic Hour’ writes about a beautiful bond, created with delicate threads of trust and Love. I am sure every soul who would read this book, couldnt help but fall in love with the book and its characters. A beautiful and inspirational read by Kristin.
