Redemption by Karen Kingsbury, Gary Smalley

3.0

This was just disappointing overall. I loved these books when I was in 8th-9th grade, but they were just not good this time around.

Things I liked: Kari and her determination to love her husband and save her marriage, despite how much he's done to hurt her. Ryan Taylor, because duh.

Things I didn't: most everything else. How fake and one dimensional the characters felt, how inauthentic the faith aspect felt, how you could predict almost everything that would happen after the first ten pages of the book, etc. I would love to write Christian fiction, and I also love to read Christian fiction. This, however, was NOT it.
