An Altered Ending by Megan Trennett

I received a copy of An Altered Ending by Megan Trennett in exchange for an honest review.

Altered Ending by Megan Trennett follows Ellen Mitchell, who is on the brink of a life crisis. Ellen never thought her life would end up the way that it has. She is close to turning thirty and has her hands full with dealing with her mother’s terminal cancer. All in all, she has nothing to look forward to. But, that all changes one fateful day when she gets an email from a former professor offering to help guide her as a writer. But, things aren’t that easy because their relationship has always been complicated. Ellen wonders whether now is the time to tell him the things that she always hid or is it too late? Or will she let him slip through her fingers once again.

At first, I wasn’t quite sure what to think about Altered Ending. Ellen is quite the downer in the beginning and things don’t really start to pick up from her until her former fling comes back into the picture. I think it is only human to struggle with wanting more in life and I honestly felt for Ellen throughout most of the book. For a lack of better terms, she definitely has her hands full and I think it is fate’s way of stepping in and bringing a love interest. Ironically though, it is one from the past. Overall, this book is a quality read and I definitely enjoyed it. After all, complicated relationships make for the best stories.

[Rating: 4/5]
