MY REVIEW
I think this is this author’s best book that I have read. I’ve only missed a few of the early ones. It was so well written, and the characters really leap off the page. They are so well developed and fleshed out that they seem real.
I love split time stories, but there is usually ones far prefer above the other. That wasn’t true with this book. I thoroughly enjoyed the present day as well as the historical story.
This story is very much plot driven. I don’t know why, but it did take me a bit to get into the story. I’m blaming it on my mood since it was such a well done read that’s eventually stayed up into the night to read. Both stories had such good plots to them and those plots keep the reader turning the pages .
The research is interesting, and this author is always good at that. This story just seemed to be a bit different than her others, and it is really has a lot of emotion and faith based theme throughout .
I love the children in the story. It’s such a sweet part of the novel. It closes with a beautiful epilogue. This is a book that historical fiction fans won’t want to miss!
I received this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own.
