I started reading it yesterday afternoon after I got home from work and was nearly halfway done before I went to bed. This morning I was so excited to curl up with a blanket and a cup of coffee to sink back into the story world of Brussles during World War 1 and find out what would happen next to Evelyn Marche and how she would handle it.
There are so many fantastic reasons that I want to recommend this to you but there's one quote in particular that struck my heart the moment I read it.
"Guilt can become a stumbling block to keep us from God's mercy. Our Lord is always ready to forgive, eager to take us back into the fold of His love. But sometimes we humans deny ourselves that grace, especially when our transgressions seem insurmountable."
How true is that? There have been many times in my life that I get tripped up on my guilt that keeps me from running to God for His love, mercy and forgiveness I desperately need.
If you want to read a fantastic, fast paced, wonderful book that will take you on a journey exploring this very issue through World War 1 then pick up Kate Breslin's new book!
