Review: Drawing Free

Drawing Free by Elena Aitken
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Former artist Becca struggles with a teenager daughter, a tantrum-prone younger daughter, a husband who works too much and a father who's slipping away. The only thing that she can see to do is to escape from what her life has become to go and find herself.

This is a story that I think anyone can relate to--whether they are married, a parent or none of the above. At some point, we all get pegged into a life that we are supposed to have or are expected to have, whether that was our own vision for our lives or not. Through Becca, readers can see the point where it just becomes too much, and she has to escape in order to find her way back. It was an excellent story, and really makes you think about what can prompt a change when it becomes necessary.
