The Survivor is the third book in the Families of Honor series. This is the first series by Shelley Shepard Gray that I have read from start to finish. As I have just finished this series, I have a very satisfied and happy feeling about the way this series has gone. Although, I really wouldn’t mind one more book just to see how everyone is doing. I feel like there is still more story to tell in Jacob’s Crossing. One of the things I have really liked about this series is the fact that there has been a lot going on in each of the books. That kept them interesting and that kept them fast reads. The Survivor was a very fast read, mostly because there was so much going on, I just wanted to see what was going to happen next. Shelley’s writing style also keeps the story moving at a good pace. The only problem I had with this book is that there were a few cliches that are seen in too many romances. The back and forth thing with Mattie and Graham felt a bit overdone and not very realistic. Also, the storm I initially felt was a bit of a cliche, but Shelley used it in a positive way that fit in with the theme of the book. When I first read what the story was about, that Jenna was claiming Graham was the father of her baby, I thought it sounded a little too much like bad daytime television. But, as I have come to expect from Shelley Shepard Gray, she wrote it very well and it made for a good story of redemption. So, overall, The Survivor is a very good book. Shelley definitely took some risks with this book as she tells us in her letter to the reader, but they were well worth it and effective.

This is the first book in the Riverboat Adventures series. This series is about a young girl who becomes involved in the Underground Railroad while living on her father's Mississippi River steamboat in the 1850s. Since her mother's death four years ago, twelve-year-old Libby Norstad has lived with her aunt and uncle in their Chicago mansion. In that time, she has seen her father only rarely, because he is a riverboat captain on the Mississippi River. Now that Libby is older, her father has decided that she will live with him on his riverboat, the Christina. The year is 1857, and arguments over slavery are beginning to divide America. Libby has never had to think much about slavery, but she has always assumed that slaves are well-treated by their masters, and are better off that way than trying to make it on their own. But her new life aboard the Christina challenges her beliefs, when she discovers that Caleb, the ship's cabin boy, is active in the Underground Railroad. Caleb exposes Libby to the horrors of slavery, and she is forced to confront her beliefs about right and wrong for the first time in her life. This book was well-written and full of interesting historical details, and Libby's character transformation was believable. I would recommend it to readers who are interested in this time period in history, and I look forward to reading the rest of the books in the series.
