Absolutely love this series and this book started it all for me. Joey W. Hill is an amazing writer who has a way of making you feel like you know her characters. Her characters from different series also tend to interact. Definitely an excellent read!

My heart broke for the plight of this 13 year old girl- forced in to marriage with a sickly boy with terrible inlaws. This book made me want to work on my talents again.

Don't bother. I gave it 2 because it did present some interesting ideas about the future.

Very nicely illustrated and the CD and song were already a favorite at our house.

I was thoroughly distracted the first time I listened to this novel, and as a result, I didn't like it. I'm trying it again because everything about it has been so positive. The narrator is fitting and good so far. This time, way way better. Really like this and plan to listen to the second in the series. Perfect for "Hunger Games" fans as well, though maybe a bit complicated for young middle school readers. More a 9-12 novel.
Author Melinda Evaul has done a fantastic job in her debut novel "Grow Old With Me" of bringing to life two hurting people - Sarah Campbell and Benjamin Pruitt. When Sarah's and Benjamin's paths cross, will they be able to push fear aside and find true love? I love the themes throughout this book, such as that found in 1 Samuel 16:7 "The LORD does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart." So often, people are judged for their appearance and treated poorly merely for not fitting the mold of society's idea of outer perfection. Such is the case for Benjamin. The pain, sadness, and rejection he had faced stayed with me long after I finished reading the last page. So, too, Sarah was forgotten for the self-sacrifices she made throughout her life caring for her mother. As the years had passed, she had all but lost hope. Lonliness and chronic physical pain had also found their way into Sarah's life. Melinda did a great job of illustrating both Sarah's and Benjamin's characters. They were realistic enough to be a next door neighbor or someone we might meet at the grocery store. This is an uplifting book of faith, hope, and love. "Grow Old With Me" is a well-written novel with characters that capture the reader's heart. I would highly recommend it and have placed it on my keeper shelf.
This was my favorite book when I was a kid. This is the book that got me to enjoy reading.
Hilarious and well-written.
