My Thoughts on Unwilling Promise:

I wasn’t sure what to think about this new to me author but the premise of the book sounded interesting. 

Klarysa moves away with her infant to get out of a bad relationship.  She moves to where her family lives and attempts to start over.  When she visits an old friend who is dying she agrees to marry that woman’s husband after she dies and take care of her children.

The concept is great.  This could have turned into an amazing book!  I loved learning about Ukrainian culture.  That was a highlight of the book.

This book itself needs a good edit.  There are grammatical errors and writing errors that detracted from my reading.  Those kinds of errors tend to bug me and then I forget where I am in the story and what is happening.  

I also really would have liked to see the characters more developed.  

It is impressive that the author was able to bring about little known facts and also some hard topics such as death, grieving, and PTSD.  All in all, this is a good read though not one that I would read again.
