Review # 1 was written on 2017-03-13 00:00:00 Jason Miller Oh dear. I don't like not liking books. As an author I don't really like reviewing books I don't like, either. So, UGH. I would provide a list of pros and cons, but sadly there's like one pro and twenty cons, so that might look slightly off-blanaced. (I read this book because of someone else's 5-star rating, so obviously there are people out there who really enjoyed it. I'm just not one of those people.) The one thing I did like was hearing about the plight of children in Burundi, although it felt so far out of congruence with the rest of the book that I had a hard time being okay with how it was displayed. As for what I didn't like? In an effort to be brief, I won't go into a lot of detail. I didn't like any of the characters. I didn't like the plot. I felt like the main character was whiney, immature, and a huge brat. Plus, the book was full of redundancy and contradictions. The main character is "frugal" and "hardly has enough money to live on" yet quits her job and eats out (ordering an appetizer, main dish, *and* dessert), and chows down on ice cream all the time. That's not exactly the way to be frugal. There are so many stupid miscommunications, a lot of suspension of belief, a totally wrong mindset about how to deal with problems, and a bit of theology I didn't agree with, plus another bit of theology that was seemingly stuck in there just to make a point. And there's more I could say, but I'll leave it with that and hope I didn't come across as too harsh....

Review # 2 was written on 2013-04-10 00:00:00 Mark Thomas Barnes About this book: "I'm a P.K., preacher's kid (or if I want to get fancy, a T.O., theologian's offspring). I grew up afraid of my own allowance.... So when over $20 million falls into her lap, Cassia Carr views her Midas touch as a cross, not a blessing--and certainly doesn't anticipate the difficulty of giving it all away! And it's hard enough to gauge romantic feelings without the chaos of a major windfall. Her globetrotting neighbor, Adam Cavanaugh, seems interested--but in Cassia or her fortune? When Adam abruptly disappears, should Cassia forget him or follow her heart to an unknown, life-changing destination?" Series: Yes, �Steeple Hill Cafe�. Does not have to be read in order. Spiritual Content: Ecclesiastes 5:12 in the beginning of the book. Proverbs 11:24, Proverbs 15:3, Proverbs 12:24, Psalms 37:16 & Luke 6:38 all in the first chapter. This was the most (as of 3/3/13) book I�ve read for this blog that had the most scriptures. A++ Fantastic! Adam isn�t as strong in his faith as before his mission trip. Negative Content: Adam has flashbacks about the country he served in; some in details. Cassia Carr Adam Cavanaugh 312 pages P.O.V. switches between Cassia & Adam (Mostly Cassia- it�s her book after all ;) ) ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* Cassia doesn't want the money the came into in lap, she tries to give it away...but that doesn't work well. I think I find a new favorite. *BFCG recommends this book by this author. It does not mean I recommend all the books by this author. *By Lindsey @
