The best TV shows are the ones that end with you wanting to know what happens next. The ones that you season pass on your TiVo because you don't want to miss any part of the storyline. The ones where each episode leads into the next and is connected to all of the ones that came before it. Those are my favorite kind of shows.So it's no surprise, I'm a sucker for any books that are part of a series. I love that by the end of a good series each of the characters is developed so thoroughly that I feel like I know them personally. And I'm sad to see them go.
Two years ago I did a giveaway on my blog and asked readers for book recommendations. One of the top recommendations was the book Redemption by Karen Kingsbury. I had no idea when I bought it that it was part of a five-book series. I just finished reading the fifth and final book of the series and wanted to let everyone know about these great books. I used Redemption in one of Fluent Brittish's book swaps, and everyone that read it loved the book.
So here I am taking that recommendation and passing it on to you. Karen Kingsbury's Redemption series is about people like you and me. It's about a family that goes through trials, struggles, and hardships. About individuals that sometimes forget their faith but always eventually come back around. About relationships between friends, family, lovers, neighbors, and strangers. It's about life. Life as I know it and life as you know it. And I recommend this book to anyone who is looking for a way to remember that no matter what happens, no matter how bad it gets, it will always be okay.
So if you're looking for a good book, I've got five for you. Redemption, Remember, Return, Rejoice, and Reunion.
And if anyone feels like buying me the next series- Firstborn by Karen Kingsbury, I like new books. And gifts.

I've always heard from all my friends what an amazing author Karen Kingsbury is and how her stories are gripping and leave you sitting on the edge of your seat thirsting for more. Somehow, it's not been until recently that I picked one up myself - I found Divine as an audio book (at http://www.audiobooks.net) which is perfect as it suits my lifestyle. I have just started listening and am already blown away by the story!
ReplyDeleteI loved this book so much. I read it for my english class but i would have read it anyways.
ReplyDeleteThis book reminded me that God is always with my no matter what happens in life. There is hope even through really tough times in life.
