The Mailbox by Marybeth Whalen


Lindsey Adams first visits the Kindred Spirit mailbox in Sunset Beach, NC as a teenager. She continues to go back each year and write a letter chronicling her year. She shares the good and the bad, the joys and the disappointments with the Kindred Spirit. 20 years after her first visit to the mailbox, Lindsey is there at the beach with he kids as a divorced woman. Lindsey finds herself face to face with her first love, Campbell Forrester who still lives at Sunset Beach. Will she be able to offer and accept forgiveness for all the hurts in her life? Will she be able to trust again?
The Mailbox is a book about second chances. We all need second chances to make amends for our mistakes. This book paints a beautiful picture of these second chances in the lives of Lindsey, Campbell and those around them. I very much enjoyed reading this book and would love reading it again. Go stick your toes in the sand, and enjoy this great book. When you finish reading, may you be inspired to write a letter to Kindred Spirit. What would your letter say?

I give this book 4.5 stars.
I received this book free from David C. Cook for the purpose of this review.
