I fully expected this to be a standard Gothic thriller with a love story. However, while it was that, it was far from standard. Yes, the tale is somewhat predictable, but what makes this stand out is Shield's ability to pull together a beautifully toned story that seamlessly transitions from past to present as the narration changes from Evie's point of view to Agnes's. The depth of the characters, and Shield's decision to make Sebastian an un-predictable love interest pull this story together making it stand out from the rest. I liked the narration of the audiobook which held me even though I listened to it sporadically. With two characters, Evie and Agnes, being so similar, yet from different time periods, it could have been easy to be lost as the narration transitions back and forth, but Shield's superb writing allowed for a powerful reading that keeps you coming back for more. I know that I would have had a hard time putting the book down if I had read it in that format. I've also added the other novels in the series to my reading list, but this book can stand on its own, and I do not feel left hanging having not read the others. It's a bit heavy and deep at times, so not particularly a light summer read, but as the weather gets cooler, it's a good book to keep in mind when you want to curl up with a good book.

Nelly is as good a writer as she is a teacher. These stories are gripping. I was totally gripped.

I didn't enjoy this book as much as the previous. Although I understood (as much as a person can w/o actually experiencing something) the issues and insecurities the heroine had, she drove me nuts. I thought for sure it would be the hero that would annoy me, but nope. I actually adored him. The story itself was good and I liked visiting the town of Petal again, but I wasn't super impressed with this one. Even so, I can't wait to start the next.
So good.

There were a number of passages that I wanted to make note of that I especially liked. I don't feel they give anything away from the plot... "Searching too hard for God can get in the way of finding him." "I yearn to understand some measure of thy truth which my heart believes and loves. For I do not seek to understand in order to have faith, but I have faith in order to understand. Fo I believe even this: I shall not understand unless I have faith." Saint Anselm of Canterbury "She was the perfect house guest. She was not noisy, demanding, messy, or intrusive. She was helpful without getting in the way, and she did not need to be constantly entertained." "Ordinary Time is all those days that blend one into the next without exceptional incident, good or bad; all those days unmarked by either tragedy or celebration. Ordinary Time is the spaces between events, the parts of a life that do not show up in photo albums or get told in stories. In real life, this is the bulk of most people's lives. But in literature, this is the part that doesn't make it into the book. This is the line space between scenes, the blank half-page at the end of a chapter, and the next one begins with a sentence like: Three years later he was dead."

One of my favorite books ever. It was very moving on many levels. A retelling of the litle known story of the Book of Hosea (takes place in the west), it sucked me in immediately. I read the entire thing in two sittings, and was sad when it ended.
I could not finish reading this book! It dragged on and on and on! I know he is a celebrated author, but I HATED this book! BORING!!
