MY REVIEW

This book is one I enjoyed mostly because it wasn’t entirely predictable and the plot was so different.Many books after the first chapter, the reader pretty much knows how it will end -just not exactly how the story will get there. This story is refreshingly different yet melancholy. 

The main characters are all over middle aged, thus their view on life is different. The love story is sweet and tender, the relationships are deeper, and the characters themselves are more complex. With the backdrop of the story being a sad historical event of which I knew nothing, the author does a good job of keeping the readers interest and keeping hope in the story.

I did not feel the faith theme was as well presented as it could have been, but there was faith, hope and forgiveness in the story. There is also an adoption story…though minor, adoption has my heart!

I enjoyed the story because it was original, different, and the author did a great job of keeping the book full of hope despite the devastation in which they are surrounded.
I received this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own.
