TravelersWife4Life (31 KP) rated Faith's Mountain Home (Hearts of Montana, #3) in Books
Feb 24, 2021
Do you like books? Well, you probably do if you are reading this…..
Misty M. Beller has become one of my favorite authors over the last year as I have kept up with her new books and gone back and read her previous books. In each one she creates this beautiful connection between the reader and her characters that is phenomenal. Faith’s Mountain Home is a bit of a different focus than most of Misty M. Beller’s other books in that the characters do not travel all over the west, they mainly stay in a mining town. But after learning a bit about the main characters of this book in the last one Loves Mountain Quest I was really excited to learn more about Nate and Lauren and Misty M. Beller did not disappoint. Both Lauren and Nate showed great growth as individuals and their faith really showed through. I enjoyed the themes that Misty M. Beller wove into this story as they were realistic and had real life applications. Plus, the storyline hooked my interest with the opening line “Just a little farther. Laura Hannon dared another step on the rock ledge that wrapped around the mountain.” It was a great start and the momentum kept going throughout the book.
Overall, I give this book 5 out of 5 stars for the great character development, the themes presented, the the great display of faith throughout this book.
*I volunteered to read this book in return for my honest feedback. The thoughts and opinions expressed within are my own.

The story is great. (2 more)
Telltale games are unlike any others.
Bigby kicks all type of ass.
If you haven't played one of telltale's games then this the perfect first step.
Based on the comic book series 'fable', you take the place of protagonist 'Bigby' a detective who is tasked with finding the murderer of a prostitute known as 'Faith'.
There are different options the player can make that affect the out come of the story; if you decide to tell toad to go fuck himself, then he may be less inclined to help you further down the line...
Don't worry, though. There's always a little note in the corner when you punch someone in the face that 'they'll remember that'.

Sometimes I think I must be missing something.. This is a book adored by many and yet I can't see quite see why. There were moments of brilliance and fascination, mostly involving religious history and the search for faith. The pace was fast and I wanted to keep reading to the end but had I not already mastered the eye roll due to raising teenagers, I would have learnt fast with this. The unassumingly handsome but excessively fit academics professor thrown into worldwide adventures with beautiful women seems a little stale for some reason... Can't think why. Despite this déjà vu, I expect to read another at some point, if only for the history.
A book to borrow from the library.

A Tragedy
This book puts a new twist on Greek mythology. The narrator is Chloe the youngest of the three faiths. The story begins when a young girl shows up trying to change her faith.
I love Greek mythology and was really looking forward to this book. Unfortunately it was terribly horribly boring. I didn't even want to finish it, but I kept going thinking it might improve. Sadly it didn't.
Chloe should not have been the main character. She didn't have a lot going on, and she wasn't particularly likable. Aglaia should have been the one telling the story, or at the very least it should have alternated perspectives.
Its truly a tragidy that such an interesting premise was executed so poorly.
