My Thoughts
Oh wow! This book was sensational! There was so much to love about this story. I absolutely loved how Nicole Deese takes you on a journey with the the characters in her books and this story was no different. She truly writes with so much depth. This was a beautiful story full of family, faith, love and redemption. The characters were perfectly imperfect. Full of brokenness and we truly can relate to them.
I was drawn into Sophie's story and felt for her and the way she grew up. Her family is definitely not the warm and fuzzy kind and her brother is something else. Read the story and you will see what I am talking about. I really enjoyed August and his sister Gabby. Their story was unique and I really enjoyed their sibling dynamic. The way that this author brought the deaf community into the storyline was done beautifully and I really liked how it was a huge part of the story. I think this is the first story that I have encountered this.
The faith in this book was continual and perfection. It is definitely the one thing that tied the entire storyline together and I was all for it. The redemption arc was was done so well. Get the tissues handy because if you are like me you will tear up more than once.
Overall, I absolutely loved this story and although part of a series, it reads a stand alone.
I received a copy of this book for review. All views expressed are my own.
