Priscilla Cogan tells a great story of a 'normal' disfunctional family. I loved the mystery of the new nanny, watching her growing relationship with each family member and how she helped each individual to become the best person they could be. She pulled in Native American spirituality respectfully, and effectively incorporated the family dog as one of the main characters.Her audience could be teenagers or middle aged women, it works well for both. She pulled in physical issues and personality issues that a wide variety of people can relate to. Lessons were taught subtly, and I think it could help families with difficulties learn to cope in a different way.
I thought the book was written creatively, and the story was sound. It was pretty simplistic and a little too fast-moving. It could have been developed a bit more to allow the reader to be really sucked into the family. The only thing that was distracting was the editing. There were too many missing/wrong words and grammatical errors. If there is a second printing, hopefully these will be corrected.
Overall, a good book worth recommending.

Once again Priscilla Cogan has kept me up late at night while I was glued to the pages of her latest novel. The characters are interesting, entertaining and leave me wanting to know where they are today...
I am a fan of Priscilla Cogan's books. I also enjoyed her trilogy of Winona's Web, Compass of the Heart, Crack of Dusk Crook of Dawn. In The Unraveling Thread, Cogan captivates you from the start. Each character have their own story and yet they are all intertwined into a larger picture. Any woman who has struggled to raise their children, even in the best of circumstances, will love and be inspired by the triumphs and struggles her character endures with humor and grace under fire. It also brings to light the sometimes lonely struggles endured by families and loved ones who cherish and nurture a disabled child.
This is the 5th book I've read by Priscilla Cogan, and typically another real page turner. She has a way of creating characters that you feel you know personally by the time you finish the book. I hope she decides to make this into a trilogy as she did with Winona's Web, Compass of the Heart and Crack at Dusk Crook of Dawn. With each book, she continually evokes in the reader feelings of joy, sadness, pain, humor. I look forward to more of her books!
Pricilla out does herself with this fantastic book! A must read..! Her fan base is bound to grow! Keep up the wonderful work....and thanks for the stories.
I love Priscilla Cogan's writings, their deep compassion and connection with life. SO life-affirming. This story brings in themes of, as always, Native American spirituality, plus anorexia, dementia, VLFS, the stresses of middle-age people caregiving for both elderly parents and children, the importance of healthy boundaries, and - very important - a dog (who gives perspective on us two-leggeds) in a beautiful family's life.
I am always sad when I finish one of Cogan's books. Actually I am re-reading several of them for sheer inspiration. Agatha Stands is a useful role model and inspiration for me.
