An Awesome READ!

From the moment I purchased this book, I could not put it down. It did not matter that there were 50 chapters or over 300 pages, this book was action packed from the first page. This book will have you wanting more, from one page to the next. You'll be bursting with anticipation. This book kept my full attention; and it never got dull... You will fall in love with the characters, especially Delia and Ezra. I really hope she does a sequel to this book. I haven't read a book this good, since reading Stephanie Perry Moore's "Wearing My Halo Tilted." I love this book and recommend it to anyone age 14 and up. It's amazing how Mrs. Gouge incorporated GOD's love for a people. Great job!!

God is faithful.

I really enjoy reading this book. I'm reading it again. It show faith in hard times, that God is faithful to the end.

I'm sitting there beside myself

This book is action packed with every page. A "sit on the edge of your chair" type book. From the first page, the story flowed at a fast clip. My God is real to me, as real as He is to the characters Louise M Gouge portrays in this book, Then Came Hope: the second book in her newest three book series. One of these folks doubt God and His activity in her life while many others demonstrate their great, unwavering faith in Him. Louise shows both sides of the coin in this wonderful book of Hope in God, Hope that He is there for them, with them and beside them on their journey. My husband and I read the book aloud together. At times, the story was so touching that neither of us could read a word aloud for the emotion welling up in us. We'd have to take a break before continuing. As I sat there reading, I saw myself in the actions and the feelings that were shared as the story unfolds. I say this book is a good read for teens on up, male and female alike.
