Another Dawn by Kathryn Cushman {Book Review}

image

When life gets complicated, Grace Graham runs. She’s left romantic relationships, friendships, and even her own family after the death of her mother. But now her sister, Jana, is giving he one last change. Come home and help care for their father – whom Grace still blames for her mother’s death – or never show her face in Shoal Creek, Tennessee, again.

With her son, Dylan, in tow, Grace returns home from California. But is she returning for the right reason? And when costly decisions from the past suddenly put her son’s life and the lives of other children in town at risk, will she have the strength to stand strong and await Another Dawn?

First of all, I read this book in two days. It was such an easy read and each page made me want more. I loved that this could be a real life situation.

This book hits on hot topics such as organic living and vaccines and how it is seen from multiple points of view.

This book describes the life of Grace who is the single mother of a four year old named Dylan, which instantly made me interested. It goes into the family dynamics she has in her own family and in her romantic life as well.

I really related to Grace as a person and as a mother wanting to do the right and best thing for her child.

While I thoroughly enjoyed the plot line of the story I would have loved to have heard more about her past and why she feels the way she does now.

I highly recommend this book for anyone who is looking for a good Christian Fiction read.

{I was given this book by Bethany House Publishers to review. All these opinions are mine.}
