Where We Belong By Lynn Austin

God knows when the end of our days will be. We have nothing to fear.”

Lynn Austen’s Where We Belong is a Christian Historical Fiction novel inspired by twin sisters, Agnes and Margaret Smith. The story takes place in between 1860 and 1890 and focuses on sisters Rebecca and Flora, who grow bored of school and decide to go on an adventure. They get all the information needed to take a trip and present it to their father. This is just the beginning of their travels. The sisters are currently on a trip to the Monastery of St. Catherine on Mount Sinai in search of early manuscripts of the Bible. The sisters have taken along two young people they have recently employed. Soren is their butler and Katie is learning to be a lady’s maid. Soren and Kate both have done things in their past that have taken them to jail and the sisters taken them in. Soren and Katie do not get along at all. As the group travel, they each have memories of their past come back to them.

This is a very good book and brings out the theme that not every one believes the Bible is the way it was originally written. Rebecca’s boyfriend does not believe and she refuses to marry him because of this. The topic of faith and prayer is also very strong in the story. I really enjoyed this story, I especially like the questions the sisters had about what God’s plan was for them. I think anyone who enjoys reading of adventure as well as historical fiction with enjoy this story.

I received a copy of this book from Bethany House Publishing and I have written this honest review.
