This is the second in a series called Snowglobe Connections, the first being Stray Affections, which I also reviewed.
This book focuses on employees of a company that is being restructured with the help of a consultant, Josie. We meet Josie briefly in Stray Affections and this book tells the story of her strange encounter with a mysterious snow globe. Josie a very independent, strong, 47 year old who's life is going just like she wants it, or so she thinks. We also meet several other characters who are dealing with the upheaval of downsizing and other personal issues.
It is easy and enjoyable to read. There is a good message about people not always being who they seem. To not judge them based on initial impressions. And sometimes we are not who we think we are. It is also a pretty relevant book dealing with the economy and job loss and we could learn something about dealing with these troubling times from the characters here.
There were some unexpected turns that could have really turned this book in another direction, but were handled well to keep the book uplifting.
