Brillant and soul-searchingly deep! Katie Ganshert just continues to produce unbelievable works of art in her books. The stories are amazing! But the spiritual truths are so profound they make you take a second look and a third and fourth. Remarkable! As you read the character's thoughts you think to yourself WHAT did the author go through in her life to have such insights? She truly has a gift from God to portray the depth of emotion she does and with it the healing balm that only God can give. This story is deep. I mean DEEP! It deals with tragedy on a scale that really makes even the stauchest Christian ask Why? Ganshert isn't afraid to meet doubt, fear, questioning, "shaking a fist at God" kind of grief. Ganshert delivers a story that isn't mere entertainment. The author looks intimately into the mind of someone who wanted to ask God why much as David does in the Psalms. And the main character of this book asks why again and again seeing glimpses of God but being beset by satan's lies. This book is so powerful because it isn't sugar coating the real, down and out feelings of desperation when wondering why God let a tragedy come into your life...why God didn't intervene when He could have. And why sometimes we don't see answers or reasons. It is a meaningful look at tragedy, grief and how God's love is still stronger than any evil. You won't be the same after reading this totally, outstanding book.
I received this book from the publishers and was not required to write a positive review.
