The Long-Shining Waters by Danielle Sosin

This is a beautifully written book about three women who live in the same area around Lake Superior.  Although they all have the lake in common, they live in different times: one lives in the 1600's, one in the early 1900's, and one in 2000.  The book rotates from one story to another bringing each woman to life.  Each of the three women has challenges she's facing, and the author does a masterful job of revealing these characters to us.  It isn't an action-packed book, and there are times when I felt there were chapters where absolutely nothing happened.  But it still kept my interest and I enjoyed the poetic writing style. - June
