Book Review
When Sparrows Fall by Meg Mosley
What a great book! I give this book an 8 out of 10. This book is a classic Christian romance novel, exactly what I like to read. I was not disappointed with this one; instead it was one of those I could not put down. I found myself reading every chance I could get.
When Sparrows Fall begins by introducing the reader to a widowed woman, Miranda, who attends a close-knit church within the town. The pastor tells everyone he plans to move the entire church and its members to another state. Miranda does not want to move from her home and uproot her children. She sees this as an opportunity to separate herself and her children from the church and from the very controlling pastor. But he threatens to real secrets in Miranda’s past that could hurt her and her children.
The book takes a twist when Miranda takes a serious fall and ends up in the hospital. Jack Hanford, a college professor, is surprised to find he has been named guardian over Miranda’s children while she recovers. Jack quickly notices something is a little off with the way Miranda teaches and raises her children. He insists on bringing some much needed change into the house challenging the conservative lifestyle the kids live.
As Jack tries to make sense of Miranda and the family, Miranda is uneasy and defensive as the pastor’s pressure to move increases. The two must learn to trust each other and God to overcome obstacles and find freedom and happiness.
I recommend this book in a heartbeat and it is one I would defiantly read again. Although depending our church and/or homeschooling beliefs it may strike a nerve with some folks. Meg Moseley does a great job keeping the reader wondering how the book will go without having too many twists. It is a very serious/sad book but you find Jack’s changes for the children lightening your spirits. You find yourself rooting for Miranda and her family wanting it to all work out and for them to find love and happiness, but knowing that’s not exactly how life works out sometimes.
**I received this book free from Waterbrook Multnomah Publishers in exchange for my honest review. I would like to thank Meg Moseley and Waterbrook Multnomah for this opportunity**
