review 1: Seeking the resolution to grief and finding love again, Kingsbury swirls the characters through dramatic life events after 9/11 and the LA fire storms. Although I enjoyed the plot and purity of heart in this novel, I felt the author over and over again repeated trite phrases that preached instead of allowing the reader the opportunity to realize important points of the novel on his/her own. Like Alex, the main character, we each must come to our own private realizations before a life lesson is truely learned and appreciated.
review 2: Every Now & Then is a very appropriate title for this story; the plot illustrates that with the Lord's help someone can progress from being so consumed and obsessed with a tragic event in their lives that it hurts them as a person... more and destroys relationships to healing and arriving at a place where the event is still important, but they can enjoy relationships with other people again and think of the past periodically. Many people may be helped by reading about this journey that Alex, Holly, and other characters experience. This final volume in Karen Kingsbury's 9/11 series is good, but more predictable than some and there is a little bit less happening than in some of her other books. less

I didn't realize this was part of a series when I bought it, let alone the third book in the series. I enjoyed the story, but I think I would have liked it better if I had read the 2 books before it as I felt like there were pieces missing. But with that said, it was a typical Karen Kingsbury story with lots of elements of faith and relationship struggles. No real surprises, but it was still worth reading. Might try to find the other 2 books and read them now.

I really liked this book the message was heart-felt and honest as Karens books usually are. I liked that this book dealt with the thought that you can't take on the things that happen in the world onto yourself. Anytime the events of Sept. 11th are dealth with it almost always brings about a heavy heart but I love that Karen continues to show that good things can come from any event even as one as horrible as the terrorists attacks.

I was drawn into the character of Alex; The author did a good job of engaging the reader.
