Christina's Reviews > A Time to Love

** spoiler alert ** Finished my first Christian fiction novel for the first time since I was a teenager. It was so good! I thought I still had a ways to go but turns out the last 29 pages included a glossary of Amish terms used in the book. Then a Discussion Questions section and then two chapters from the next novel in this series. So the book wasn't actually 300 pages! The story ended at page 273. After that chapter ended with a wedding day, I had turned the page to 274 expecting many more pages about their first days of marriage. What a disappointment when that next page was just a glossary and then discussion questions and then a 2 chapter teaser of the next book. Wow. So it ended perfectly. They made it to their wedding day! I cried at points in this book and that surprised me. I totally got into this story of an Englisch woman marrying the man she had a crush on as a teenager visiting her Amish grandmother one summer. They had been separated at the end of that summer and many years later God reunited them through a series of events where God showed up in trials and Romans 8:28 and Jeremiah 29:11 were applicable. Also, I learned something about worrying, from the grandmother who said worry is like being arrogant as if we should be telling God what he should do. Rather, we should be patient and remember Proverbs 16:9! Proverbs 3:5-6 apply as well. Good message and reminder to me each day over the time I spent reading this.
