2 CHILDREN FOR SALE
The sign is a last resort. It sits on a farmhouse porch in 1931, but could be found anywhere in an era of breadlines, bank runs and broken dreams. It could have been written by any mother facing impossible choices.
For struggling reporter Ellis Reed, the gut-wrenching scene evokes memories of his family’s dark past. He snaps a photograph of the children, not meant for publication. But when it leads to his big break, the consequences are more devastating than he ever imagined.
Inspired by an actual newspaper photograph that stunned the nation, Sold on a Monday is a powerful novel of love, redemption, and the unexpected paths that bring us home.

Terrible and SO BORING!! Couldn’t finish it - not engaging at all
Interesting but not engaging enough for me.
I found the concept behind the story to be quite interesting, but, the storyline was too predictable and not engaging enough for my liking. It was far from a page turner. Only two characters were “fleshed out,” the others were just sort of there as limp supporting characters.
I read it because not only did I purchase the paperback version, but the e-version as well, anticipating that I’d want to have it to reread. How wrong I was…

This story was so heartwarming. I can’t imagine what a lot of children went through back in that time. The cover alone brought tears to my eyes. I could almost feel his hurt and pain. Wonderfully written. Now I wonder what happened to a lot of the children. That will stick with me forever.
Thank you.
