One Thousand Gifts: A Dare to Live Fully Right Where You Are by Ann Voskamp

5.0

This book is absolutely life changing. This book was given to me by a close friend of mine who insisted that I would love this book. He was right. This book seems so simple, but it is so much more when you look deep into it. The way Voskamp writes this book is so beautiful. One of my favorite parts is that she very rarely uses names in her book for instance, she calls her husband "the farmer". For me this seemed that she was adding something to his character. Instead of just labeling him with a name she tells us more about his character by calling him the farmer. With out having to explain it, the reader understand that he is hardworking, patient, and caring.
This book makes you change the way you see the world. This book has seriously changed the way I see my life and how I react to the world around me. Voskamp's writing style is gorgeous and will speak right to your soul. I highly recommend this book!
