How do we find there while staying here - especially when darkness shrouds our path?
This is the central question of Let’s Go Home, Finding There While Staying Here. It is the story of Halia, a beautiful free-spirited soul, and her quest to find there, the elusive weird and wonderful of her childhood and of snowy mountain escapes.
As she runs from her pain, Halia creates a façade to find acceptance in a world where she feels lost, alone and misunderstood. She makes friends with Snow, who promises to take her home, only to slowly steal her soul. To the outside world Halia has it all, but she sees through the façade she has carefully constructed. Knowing it can never be enough, she sticks a needle in her arm, desperately seeking there, unable to find it here.
On her journey back, her father, who abandoned her as a child, teaches her
to stop running and face her pain, and an enchanting wise woman, Tabitha enters her life and guides her through her darkness and the hidden stories within her soul. In voyaging outside her comfort to reclaim herself and find her way home, Halia discovers that there is a thin veil between joy and heartbreak, light and dark, here and there – will she lift the veil and embrace what lies beyond?

Here Is A Beautiful A Story.
One To Be Read With Heart.
'Let’s Go Home: Finding There While Staying Here by Bernadette O'Connor is a moving story that deals with the psychology of being home, of feeling at home with oneself, a story of love and loss, and one woman’s journey to transcend her inner darkness and reconnect with love once again. When the story begins, the protagonist, Halia, is desperate to recreate a memory of love, an experience of ecstasy that happened just recently.
A Book That Will Sit With You After The Final Chapter.
Let's Go Home, Finding There While Staying Here is a book that is written from a place of consciousness. It spoke to me in a way I was not expecting and I found I could relate to the protagonist Halia on so many levels and for this reason felt the deep emotional pull of the character as she developed.
A Book Of Great Wisdom.
I started reading Let’s Go Home, and wondered what all the fuss was about. Then as I got into the book I couldn’t put it down. So many of us, like Halia, have loss in our lives that shows up in different ways and it can totally overwhelms us. Each new chapter was unpredictable. Halia’s life was a rollercoaster of unexpected twists and turns.
A Great Book To Challenge Your Perspective.
What a great book to challenge your perspective. Halia's journey, trials and tribulations show you the way to deal with some of the huge problems that happen in your life. Bernadette has done an amazing job writing this to capture the emotions and feelings. Highly recommend this to all my friends.
