I read this series quite a few years ago, and now I am posting them. I was extremely touch by these books. I’m sorry these posts are not as detailed as the rest, but it has been more than 3 years since I read this. If I didn’t like the book, I never would have finished the series. At the time I was only reading historical Christian fiction, nothing contemporary, so this was very different for me.
