The Chapel Car Bride

The Chapel Car Bride

I just finished reading The Chapel Car Bride.  I've read a lot of different books written by Judith Miller, and I've enjoyed a lot of them.  Unfortunately, this is one that I didn't care for as much.
The story itself was original, and the author is a great writer with lots of details throughout the book, but this book just wasn't for me.  I had a hard time caring about what was happening or even the characters in general.

This book is based in a small mining town, where the people are poor and living in really rough conditions.  Hope and her father arrive in town to minister to the families and while they are there, they are pulled into a bit of the local drama. There are dangerous illegal activities, and Hope has to decide who she can trust and who she shouldn't.

Overall, I'd say this book was okay.  I think there are a lot of people who would probably enjoy this much more than I did.  Again, I think she is a great author, and I have enjoyed other books that she has written, so I'll definitely be keeping my eye out for more of her books in the future.


* I received a free copy of this book from Bethany House Publisher, in exchange for an honest review.  All opinions are my own.

What are you reading?

  3. Well, reading blogs has interfered with my book reading. I don't seem to be able to find time for both. :o)) But, we generally make time for the things we enjoy so maybe I need to work on that. Happy week!
