This is another Christian book that I enjoyed despite the fact that one of the characters was not entirely believable, the conflict felt forced at times, and the background stories were...well, let's just say I think it can do well without. I know. Sometimes I wondered myself why I liked the book, but there were times when I read it that the writing just resonated with me, and I guess that's the only reason.
Would I recommend it? Um, if you're the type of girl who read bible daily or attend the church (even if not every week), then yeah, I think this is a fine book to read.
If you're a guy or someone who doesn't do religion, you may find this book annoying.
Personally, I think the Potluck Club is a better, more neutral read than this one
Mona Reynolds was determined to open her own bookstore and hired a drifter, Joe Michaels. She encountered many problems that were not accidents, and she started to question whether they were heavenly signs that it was not meant to be, and whether Joe the drifter was behind them, which would be very unfortunate because, well, he's a fine kisser and all that.
I know. kinda cheesy. Anyway, Joe managed to proof his innocence every time and showed a mightly fine restraint and act of forgiveness that made me cringed at times for its over-the-top level and got me thinking, well, that's not going to happen in real life.
Final verdict: it's a good reading for a free christian chick-lit book, if you're into it.
