When Joy Came to Stay

This is a well written book. I finished the audio in two days! So good! The narrator, Barb Caruso, is excellent. She uses accents, etc. expertly.

Great inspirational story!

It was a little predictable but still a great Christian story! It reminded me of a lot of the promises God made to us that are easily forgotten when we're hurting or dealing with tough situations.

Loved it!

Compelled to write

When starting to read/listen to this book I found it a little difficult to get interested. It did not take long for the author to capture my interest and help me realize many women are dealing with challenging situations that cause them to question themselves. I would highly recommend this block to everyone living in America today.

beautiful story

I love Karen Kingsbury and have listened to many of her books. This one was one of my favorites so far.
