Wow. I am blown away by this book and I think that it is a really amazing and important thing to be written. I applaud David for his courage in writing this, in sharing his story. It is a difficult read, but it is one I don't regret undertaking. Definitely plan to read the next ones in the series later.

One of my favourite films at Christmas time. I enjoy follow Dorothy and Toto through her adventure in Oz along with the Scarecrow, Lion and Tin Man in their search to find the Wizard so they can get a brain, courage, a heart and for Dorothy to go home. Love the munchkins and The good witch. An excellent film for all the family

I absolutely loved, loved, LOVED this book! The title and cover are a bit deceiving but this novel is reminiscent of Manhattan Beach. The strength and bond of the women in this book is inspiring. Aunt Charlotte might be my favorite character ever! Resilience and courage during wartime was found in many forms. This one was marvelous. One of my favorite books of the year!

I LOVE this cover!! Don’t you? It is what made me stop and look at the description! …. And I was hooked. I had never read anything by Angela K. Couch, but I enjoy finding new authors.
I so enjoyed the way Angela K. Couch described the characters and their surroundings, it was vividly done and was very well researched. I loved Towan, he is a total dream-worthy guy. Towan displayed courage, patience, and an overabundance of forgiveness. All the while struggling with knowing who he is and whom God wants him to be. Christiana was interesting…. I think she showed courage, and strength in the face of her situation, but I was baffled by some of her choices in life (probably just because they are so far from what I’d make in her situation).
Overall, I really enjoyed the plot/setting of the book and thought that it was well researched, and everything seemed to fit the timeline. I give this book 4 out of 5 stars for the great descriptions of characters and their surroundings. The prominent aspect of finding out whom God wants you to be and having courage no matter what may come your way.

Harper Bliss touches on another sensitive subject in this book. It begs to question if bullies can change and can we forgive. I really like how Bliss approaches this because often kids bully because they are trying to protect themselves and can chage once away from the negative influence. It took alot of courage for the characters to do what they do in this book. I will be recommending this book.
