Resumen del Editor
A pause-resisting emotional debut in the tradition of Kristin Hannah. Ellipsis is a literary fiction novel that explores the bonds that matter most and the recovery of the human spirit when those bonds are threatened.
The future looks promising, and it's supposed to come easily.
Smart, determined, and beautiful; college student and art model Nell seemed to be the girl who had it all. A passionate relationship with one of the art students leads to an unplanned pregnancy that threatens to change everything, though, and she must build a very different life than she envisioned.
For 13 years, Nell and her son Charlie are a unit and their world is complete. That world will stop spinning, though, when there’s a shooting at Charlie’s school. As Nell reaches out via text in desperation, only the words and the animated ellipsis on the phone screen offer a buffer between life and death.
Can she save the person on the other end of the messages in time, and in the process, can she save herself, too?
Ellipsis isn't a romance, but it is a love story.

Sure, it's romantic up amidst the snow-capped peaks of Wyoming's Grand Teton Mountains, but Hanna Alexander has only one thing on her mind: trying to save the family lodge. That is, she did - right up until she hired mountain-guide Micah Gallagher to help raise revenues. Teeming with suspicion and intrigue, this Grand Teton adventure leaves listeners struggling with the Christian principle of forgiveness in the face of emotional entanglements, fears of the heart, and the inevitable agony of love.

Annabelle McKay knows she shouldn’t have any complaints. She’s been in a stable marriage that’s lasted almost three decades and has provided her with two wonderful children and thousands of family dinners around a sturdy oak table. Other wives envy the fact that Grant is not the type of man who would ever cheat on her or leave her for a younger woman. The trouble is Annabelle isn’t sure she wants to be married to Grant anymore. The trouble is she’s still in love with someone else.

I couldn’t put it down!
I experienced every single emotion reading this book which doesn't often happen. The story begins as young innocent , sweet love with so much hope and promise of tomorrow. It sheds light on derailments that happen in life and utter heartbreak that is not only read in words on a page but is felt in every fiber of your being as you turn the pages. This is a story of great love, single motherhood, visceral heartbreak and triumph on the other side of what no person should have to survive.
The author has a gift of bringing characters to life and dropping breadcrumbs throughout the story that have you wanting to read more. Highly recommend this 5 star page turner!

Ellipsis is full of emotions.
I was ill prepared for this roller coaster ride. I normally only listen to books while I'm driving, but 45 minutes into Ellipsis had me seeking out my headphones to continue the story. As the saying goes I could not put it down, or turn it off in this case and I finished it all the way through in one sitting. The subject matter is difficult but the author did a wonderful job of broaching several issues without putting off a would be reader. I will be waiting anxiously for the next book by this author.

I couldn’t stop listening!
I’ve been “between books” lately, unable to find one I really liked...until this one. The storyline was relatable and enjoyable. The narrator was terrific! The only negative was that I stayed up way too late because I couldn’t stop listening. I look forward to reading more from Kristy McGinnis!

Powerful, thought provoking, raw and honest
What a powerful thought-provoking, raw and honest book! Hit all the emotions for me, anger, happiness, joy, sorrow, absolute utter pain, BUT mostly the hope and realization that you can rebuild a life regardless the tragedy. It makes you truly thoughtful of the world today and how you can be a change in it. I can’t wait for her next book!

Ellipsis
This book was so moving and thought provoking. It pulls you in from the moment it
begins.
I finished it yesterday and it still resonates in my mind and soul.
It is a definite read for book clubs.
I hope that the author continues her journey and continues to write more novels.

When Life Pauses
Author Kristy McGinnis uses her eloquent writing skills to give us a clear portrait of a young woman who is stronger than she thinks. Her debut book “Ellipsis” with its lovely cover and equally lovely words is accurately categorized as “Women’s Literary Fiction” and it focuses on a challenging topic.
I listened to the audiobook version of “Ellipsis”. The audio version is the excellent. The narrator has a wonderful voice and is adept at bring each individual character to life. The story is told in the first person, and is the story of Nell. The narrator creates a voice that fits Nell so well. Nell is a bit aloof, sometimes business-like, sometimes vulnerable and caring.
We now use the word “ellipsis” to mean those 3 dots that appear when the recipient of a text message is writing back. Sometimes we may be impatient, or we may be eager to get the message. But what if the situation is life and death?
Nell tells her story in three parts. The first covers her college years and her first serious romance with an art student from Armenia. She gives birth to a son, Charlie. He is Nell’s whole world. After a few years, the Armenian father moves back to his home country. Nell becomes a teacher and she and Charlie continue as a close family.
The second part of the book deals with a horrific gun tragedy and the third part looks at Nell as she must move forward from great loss. Nell’s story is well written- respectful, considerate, and honest. At the height of the danger, actual ellipses on her phone cause Nell anguish. But as she moves on, she begins to see that an “ellipsis” can be a healing pause. We don’t always have to understand what is coming next, we just have to trust our tribe.
This book would be a a good book club read. The author provides a good overview of the major gun issue talking points, in a very balanced way, which would make for an interesting discussion. But there are other elements to consider: how can friends and family help, how can religion and beliefs be reconciled, how can one deal with unimaginable loss?
I recommend this thoughtful and lyrical book. I requested to listen to this book, and the author gave me access to the audiobook. This is my honest review.

Captivating, relevant story!
Ellipsis captures the reader/listener very quickly. The plot had many layers and, for me, took a turn that was unexpected. There were several references to my home state, Michigan, so that made it more interesting. The clever title is revealed quite a ways into the story. Lastly, the narrator was very natural to listen to and did a fabulous job with this story. Highly recommend this audiobook!
