Customer Reviews

Morris is great

I liked this book very much. I thought it was neat that there were two stories that conected in the end. I was glad that everyone fell in love at the end.

Better, but three stories is still too many

The story of Dorothy and Andrew's relationship was handled beautifully from both sides. I was surprised at the depth Morris was able to give to them. Priscilla and Jason's story was still too shallow. It went in jumps and gaps, so the end result was a little unbelievable, especially her decision about show business. Peter, Easy, and Jolie are wonderful to read about. Their chemistry works terrifically, and I really enjoy their relationship. The real caveat about this book is too many descriptions about characters' clothing, and sometimes in the oddest of places. I don't need a complete description of their wardrobe every time they show up, save it for special outfits, and certainly not interjected in the middle of an emotional reunion! This book is a terrific Christian book that teaches and can help the reader come to an understanding of others.

Morris's Twentieth excellent book in this series!

Everything I have read by Mr. Morris has kept me riveted. I keep going back for the next book. I'm to the end of the list, so Mr. Morris had better keep writing--I'm a fast reader. House of Winslow Series is fantastic, following the ancestors of a man who sailed on the Mayflower. So far we're in the early 1900's. I am branching out to his Appomatox Saga until he has more Winslow books. If you like Little House on the Prairie or Jeanette Oke, you'll adore Gilbert Morris. I must say that his plots and his characters have more depth and are well rounded. Historically, they are fairly accurate and record amazing detail. I wish House of Winslow weren't fiction so I could meet this family.
