Reviews for Pilgrimage

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I really liked this book. Halloran has written an insightful and realistic story of a mother's response (a pilgrimage) to her development of a terminal disease. The involvement of her daughters and the impact of the mother's pilgrimage on her daughters and all their relationships is explored. Lesser authors (I'm looking at you, Jodi P) would have ended this book in a predictable, emotive and melodramatic way, but Halloran avoids that in a very intelligent and thoughtful conclusion that kept me interested right up to the last word.
