Beautiful story!

I read this book years ago when it was published but with the release of the third book last year, I wanted to reread The Swan House and The Dwelling Place. I loved this beautiful story of forgiveness and redemption. The audio book was well done and did the story justice. Elizabeth Musser is a master storyteller. I have loved all of her books I have read and look forward to each new one. I highly suggest you read The Swan House, The Dwelling Place, and The Promised Land.

Good follow up

This was a good follow up to The Swan House. It took awhile for me to like the main character, but once I did, I couldn’t quit listening. Simple, sweet, redeeming, but good heavens, we don’t really drink THAT much Coke in Atlanta!

Wonderful novel about family and forgiveness, mixed together with love and friendship.

This is a great second book in the trilogy and I am looking forward to the third one.

An unforgettable book

Elizabeth Musser is an incredible storyteller. The Swan House, the sequel to this book, captured my attention to the author with a wonderful story of Atlanta in the 60’s. This continuation of that story set many years later draws you into the confusion and rebellion of the daughter. A beautiful story of struggle, anger and rebellion and its effect on the main character and her family is identifiable by all of us one way or another. You won’t want to miss the blessing of seeing this family’s faith and unconditional love as Ellie resists but then surrenders.

great christian book

I bought this book on the recommdation of a friend. I am so glad I did. it was well worth the money.

Perfect again!

Just a perfect follow-up to the first book in this series! I loved this story as much, or maybe even more, than "The Swan House"!

Beautiful story

A story of pain, hurts, misunderstandings, forgiveness, friendships, healing, parental deep love finally understood. Really good. It slowly goes through an adult woman’s life of hate, bitterness, and the softening of her heart and allow God in and heal a lifetime of pain and brokenness and she received true joy through the love of her dying mother which is what she so desperately needed and wanted. It was always there but misconceptions prevented it from being felt or known.

Inspiring story following an inspiring story

The story was hard to stop listening too. An inspirational story that left me wanting to spend more time with the characters. A faith based story that is so real and relevant for the world we live in.

Intriguing

Such a good writer. Makes you feel like you’re in the story. Great character development.

Relatability

I love the fact that this is a story that entails real life experiences during our walk with the Lord.
