Review:
~I'd like to thank the author for sending me a free copy in exchange for my honest review!~
Can I tell you a secret? I have never cried while reading a book.
Can I tell you another secret? I felt myself get a tad teary-eyed while reading this book, which is huge.
Written in such a heartfelt way, this book is a masterpiece. Through the stories of each of the characters, you can see how the Lord works in each of our lives, and how what seems like a life's dead end is only a twist in the story, a point where you learn a valuable life lesson.
When I read books like these, I'm always inspired to strengthen my relationship with the Lord, especially with ones as well written as this.
All in all, I really enjoyed this book, and, if you're looking for a potential tear-jerker or an inspirational story, this one's for you!
Highly recommended!
