Mermaids' Tears

Dazed and ConfusedI loved this book, was entertained by every character, every interjection into Ruth's life. I enjoyed moving a long with Rusty and his mom, listening in on their conversations, watching him spread his wings and find his way thru those awkward teen years.But the ending has me scratching my head. Very blunt ending..I thought part of the book was missing? Did not care for that ending at all. Needs to be edited to have a conclusion that the engrossed reader can find fulfilling.

Home RunI liked this book. It's not a literary masterpiece, and maybe not a candidate for a made-for-TV movie; but an honest, profound commentary on learning to make one's way in this world. It's a young man's year-long journey through the life maze, around the obstacles, passing each test, gathering strength and knowledge and courage from those traveling with him. It's also about the gifts of insight and inspiration that those fellow travelers received from the young man. An uplifting, feel goo

Wow, This Man Can Write!Michael J. Vaughn, you are an artist in your writing and your beautiful and colorful cover design. I can’t claim crying Mermaid Tears, but I admit to being thrilled that I left the cafe I was in before crocodile tears began. It’s been quite some time I’ve been so moved by a book. Reaching the end of the book resulted in more tears, knowing that I had reached the end of a wonderful story so brilliantly written. Thank you for allowing me to visit in the warmth of your world
