review 1: First I read "Walking on Broken Glass" and then I picked up this book without even realizing it was by the same author. I found this book to be more engaging and more memorable than Walking on Broken Glass. I thought the author allowed the main character to wallow in her angst for a little too long without getting to the point, and then the resolution of the emotional drama seemed a little too neat and tidy. That said, the concept of the book, and the things it makes you think about were quite good. I'm glad I read the book.
review 2: The only topic that made me uncomfortable was the protagonist's addiction to erotic literature. The author explores the feelings of a Christian woman after her brother confides that he is homosexual. The book explores the impo... morertance of loving as deeply as Christ loves and suspending the impulse to judge... since there is only One Perfect Judge. She does not address whether or not living in a homosexual relationship is sinful, but rather invites us to let the Savior and each person worry about their relationship with Diety. I appreciate the reminder that we as Christians sometimes close our church doors to those who most need it. Christ taught that He came to offer salvation to the sinners. And it doesn't matter who sins more flamboiyantly than whom because all sin is just that... sin. He invites us to love God and love one another. All other commandments fall under those two great commandments. If I cannot love a fellow sinner than I, too, have cause to change my heart. less
