Customer Reviews
A Moving Travel Through, Love, Family, Grief and Healing
I know the author. I spoke with her the day after her husband died. When I starting reading The Pink Steering Wheel Chronicles: A Love Story, I cried a deep, cathartic ugly cry and simply could not stop reading. Laura carries the reader through an intimate journey of life’s biggest moments. The moment you meet the person who grabs your soul in an instant, the moment twi become three and three become four. And then the Moment when two becomes one again through heart wrenching loss and four goes back to three. The tale that follows is about a final family trip covering 3100 miles and the healing that ensues. Read this book. It’s just simply beautiful.
