Mary Alice Monroe is both author and reader of this uneven and trite story about breast cancer survivor Mia Landon. Monroe's love of the South, nature, and fly-fishing is evident throughout as she brings awareness to the important mission of Casting For Recovery, a nonprofit organization that sponsors fly-fishing retreats for women in treatment or recovery from breast cancer. That said, the story and her reading are uninspired—full of lifeless clichés and unrealistic, one-dimensional characters. Monroe’s voice is most enthusiastic when sharing lessons on fly-fishing. She may encourage listeners to try the sport, but that’s the most they’ll get out of this book. N.E.M © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine [Published: OCTOBER 2008]
