Unfortunately, though, I wasn’t as impressed with this book as with the others for several reasons. I didn’t agree with one of the characters marrying a divorced man, there was a woman pastor in here, and another character was in a very unhealthy situation where she and those around her got drunk, wore revealing clothing, flirted, and several times there are mentions of intimacy—all of which was a bit more descriptive than I would have liked (although not as bad as it could have been).
This was a good story, though. Despite my disappointment at different points, I found it an encouraging read overall, and I’m not sad I read it. All of the characters are special to me, and I loved seeing Sharon Garlough Brown’s prowess as she brought the different ones to life. She’s a talented author, and it’s always a privilege to read books by someone who has a thorough understanding of the writing craft. ( )
