Powerful read!
What a magnetic story in Sainted in Error by Glenda Winders. This is the first book I've read of this author, and I absolutely loved this read, and just became a fan. We found ourselves with Maggie, and she's getting ready to attend and testify at her friend's murder trial. Then, it becomes interesting. We learn of the backstory of Maggie, and Cynthia. There were signs that Cynthia was in trouble. But only in hindsight did Maggie see them. The story plays out, and we see how their relationship changes, and what drags Maggie away, probably when Cynthia needed her the most. It's very powerful story that brings mental illness into the forefront, and its stigma that it carries. No one wants to be or feel "crazy" or "insane." This author brings the story to life. The characters had a lot of depth, and were very realistic. This author either had experience or did her research (or both), and portrayed Cynthia's actions accurately and unfortunately, how some suffer. It is a very well-written plot, and I enjoyed it. It’s one of those embraceable stories. It’s definitely un-put-downable! Wow! Simply masterful. Very impressive storytelling. Sainted in Error is a definite recommendation by Amy's Bookshelf Reviews and I read this book and give my honest and unbiased review.
