Omaha to Ogallala

 Plan a birthday celebration, invite the family, watch what happens

 About The Book: Two sisters, Holly and Terry, plan a 40th birthday celebration for Holly’s daughter, then invite extended family members to join them. The Wise Woman Summit, is a carefully planned seven-day excursion from Omaha to Ogallala. Along the way, through tears and trials, last minute goof-ups and surprises, the women come to know each other in new and interesting ways.

 Our Review: Ahhh. . . family dynamics. Sometimes strong and everlasting, at others torturous and divergent. Throw in an eclectic collection of females of varying ages and life experiences and you end up with unvoiced feelings, fears and deep-seated conflicts. This is a story of hopes, dreams and expectations—sometimes achieved, at other times not. Terry Korth Fischer’s fluid prose keeps the pages turning in this intriguing memoir of remembrance of family passed and living. As she has already proved in her Rory Naysmith Mystery series, the descriptions are colorful, wry and gut-busting funny. Do not miss Uncle Bob and his dogs, Buzzy and Dink. They are a trio to remember.

 On a scale of 1-5, Omaha to Ogallala merits a 5.
