Broken Wings by Carla Stewart is a sweet, but predictable novel. A friendship between an older woman, Mitzi, volunteering at a hospital in Tulsa and a young woman, Brooke, in an abusive relationship begins with a chance encounter. Recalling Mitzi’s time as a famous Jazz singer is a nice touch, and of course all ends well.

I didn’t realize Stewart was a Christian writer when I picked up the book. It was filled with a bit too much prayer and too many references to God for my taste in a novel.

A nice, easy, forgettable read.
