More DescriptionJULIE RICHARDS starts a new life as a second-career student at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 1963, eager to put her troubled past behind her, but is immediately challenged by the people she encounters.One roommate, KACI BREWER, is overly interested in men and lacks the 'adult' part of her personality, resulting in personal chaos. Julie's other roommate, ERLENE, is unsure of herself and inexperienced at many levels, and needs someone to advise and mentor her.Added to the mix is an assortment of male students, a few of whom are decent - if conflicted at times - while others are rough and coarse in their personal relationships with women.JULIE struggles with her own choices and issues while trying to mentor her roommates, gain a degree and move toward a new career and a promising future. Several older adults are crucial to her progress: professors, teachers, and a potential employer.Along the way, the lives of all three main characters - Julie, Erlene, and Kaci - take on new purpose and meaning.By the end of this novel, you'll cheer the outcomes and the final three words will propel you on to reading the third book in this trilogy: BRETON HEIGHTS.MENDOTA SHORES is the second of three books that tracks Julie Richard's life, and WHITEPAPER FALLS initiates the cycle.
