review 1: This was a wonderfully, inspiring book that I related to at least in part. It was about a father who had two families. A woman he was never married to and they had two children and then his wife and son. The one family he basically cut from his life because he was a super "climb the ladder" type guy and this family didn't help him do that. His second family did. The book takes place after both sets of children are raised. His mother dies and leaves him a letter chastising him for not ever introducing her to his other family and telling him to make it right with that family. So he goes back after all those years to try and make amends. Angela does an amazing job of keeping the story moving, adding depth, and I loved the underlying story of faith. Sins of the Father cannot b... moree erased but it is never to late to try and make a difference in the lives of your children.
review 2: Ever want to strangke one or more characters in a book? How about all of them in this train wreck of a diva driven soap ipera. Alluded by ithers as a rewrite of the biblical saga of Abraham, this book reads more liike a cat scratching, boundaries broken, anticipating a hurrivcane, can you belive she/he did THAT kind of story. Not great, passibly "fun" unless it echos your life. I did read it, but I'm neutral on it less

main character in this book was a real piece of work. I hated him. Okay book. Not great.

To long for what the story was. It was an okay story but seemed boring in some spots.

Started off ok - then got pretty repetitive. Ending was typical.
