"R Glenn Kelly is a consummate and prolific writer who breathes life into his characters in such a way that you become part of their story. He weaves empathy and hard knock life logic into an amazing inspirational tale of resilience that is fraught with challenge. Although it is challenge that is overcome by grace and collected wisdom. Brilliant book, and a unique resource in overcoming challenges and extracting a firm resolve to face each new tomorrow with an anticipation of joy. Regret can be a catalyst for hope or a fuel forfailure. Our choice. Thanks Ron for what you do for so many."

R Glenn Kelly is one of the finest writers in being able to "write what he feels" with eloquence, compassion, emotion and endearment. "I feel what he writes" in his beautifully written books on the existence, presence and challenge of grief in our lives, and how to embrace it and live on. Mr. Kelly brilliantly shares his creative talent in "Thursdays In The Grotto" where you will discover the meaning of life, and love and loss through the character of Aiden Huff. Mr. Kelly juxtaposes spirituality and reality as dual forces of the human condition that ultimately redeem one from pain and suffering. We all need to identify and seek out places from which blessings emanate and where we can nourish our souls. Such a place exists when you read "Thursdays in the Grotto."

This is the 1st book I’ve read written by R. Glenn Kelly; I will definitely be reading more of his books. He has done an excellent job and writing a good book; after Aiden loses his son everything falls apart, he loses his job, his friends, and his wife. Growing up in the mountains he always knew that Mother Nature in the mountains can solve anything so he goes into the mountains to heal. I received a free copy of this book via booksprout and I’m voluntarily leaving a review.
