Book Review: Neena Lee is Seeing Things

Neena Lee is Seeing Things by Sheila Athens is a contemporary fiction looking back at the marriage of John F Kennedy to Carolyn in 1996 and their death in a plane crash in 1999 through the eyes of a journalist, Neena Lee.

Neena has suffered loss and hold herself responsible. Her latest lost left her hospitalized in a mental health facility and without a job. She needs to write this article about John Jr to prove her abilities and save herself financially. However, when she 'sees' John Jr standing in the church, she is sure that her mental illness has taken a turn for the worse.
​
I enjoyed how Athens connects those visiting the island today with issues Neena and/or John himself needs to face. I thoroughly enjoyed this read, which is quite appropriate with the upcoming 25th anniversary of John and Carolyn's death in July.
