" Got into this story on book 3- oops. I wanted a little more from the ending, but it was a good read. Now I just need to read books 1 and 2. "

" Great series of books...each one got better and I enjoyed following Julia thru her trials and tribulations! "
— Faith, 6/13/2011 -
" I liked this book, but it was one of those books where you knew by page 60 how the book was going to end. It's a fast read with good characters but really predictable. "
— Beth, 5/24/2011 -
" I am loving the struggle of Julia to find maturity and belief in herself. A great read. I understand there is a prequel to the book. I will definitely have to read! "

" What a lovely story about family ties, broken relationships and God's<br/>restoring power. Beautifully written with endearing characters. "
— Cynthia, 3/10/2011 -
" This is the last in the trilogy, After the Leaves Fall. Again, I rate it 4 stars for this genre, Christian fiction. It is well written, though predictable, not too sappy or "preachy". It is a nice book to unwind to, a quick read, better than a tv movie. "
— Karla, 3/4/2011 -
