Three books in one how can you go wrong? Karen Kingsbury is one of my favorite authors.
This book is a collection of 3 of her stand alone books: Where Yesterday Lives, When Joy Comes to Stay,
and On Every Side. Kingsbury books will pull you in and these 3 stories are no
different. Be prepared with a box of tissues her books are almost always tear-jerkers
and these 3 are no exception.
Where Yesterday Lives is a story about Ellen Barrett and her
family after her father dies. She has been estranged from her siblings and her
father’s death made it worse. Things get worse with her marriage also falling
apart. Only God can help her deal with her past and help her get her life in
order.
When Joy Comes to Stay is about Maggie Stovall who is
dealing with depression and family problems all stemming from giving up her
child for adoption 10 years earlier. Keeping the secret really is taking a toll
on her and her husband. Can God heal her and marriage?
On Every Side was a little out of place with the other two
stories, but I still enjoyed it. Faith
Evans is a newscaster who finds herself defending her faith when controversy
strikes over a statue of Jesus that stands in the middle of a park. Jordan Riley
who is fighting to have the statue removed believes Faith is wrong. What will
happen between these two who are fighting for what both believe is right, will
they be able to find some common ground?
I always recommend anything by Karen Kingsbury. Her books are
interesting and well written. They will hold your interest if you like
Christian romance novels. Again be aware that they will make you cry.
