review 1: Title: Redeeming WatersAuthor: Vanessa Davis GriggsPublisher: Kensington Publishing CorporationReviewed By: Arlena DeanRating 4.5Review:"Redeeming Waters" by Vanessa Davis Griggs....."Brianna is 10 years old when she first meets 25-year-old David R. Shepherd, a devout and gifted gospel recording artist who ultimately becomes world renowned megastar, King d.Avid. He leaves an impression on Brianna she will never forget. And they are destined to meet again."What I enjoy from reading "Redeeming Waters"...was how this author featured this story around David and Bathesba in a new and very interesting way. There will be a twist on this storyline as well as some lessons that will be learned as this author gets to the point in the amazing read. This will be a read that you may wre... morestle with the questions of 'faith, fidelity and forgiveness. I found thecharacters Brianna and Alana's were so real in their friendship. Again, I loved the way this author brought in the scriptures at the beginning of each chapter of how it related to the story. "Redeeming Waters" was definitely a page turner that will keep your attention to the end. Yes, this was a love story that will keep you guessing, thinking, some laughter, maybe a tear or two and in the end you get to see the power of God's love.
review 2: Finally received it today! Thank you very much!Just finished it...It's 4am. Wow, where to begin on this one! I had some instinctive dislikes about this book even until the end, BUT the more I think about it. It is written about as realistically as you could possibly do with an update of this story. Other than specifically saying for sure that he ordered the husband killed, the author followed the Biblical story line with an up to date theme as close as she could. Even to the older wiser counselors and the younger ones he ended up listening to.I do feel like it gave the story away too soon and was a little too obvious for my taste, the play on all the names. I can understand why it was done that way, but I found it hard to take it serious at first because of that.Having said all of that. I will say once you get past the "cheese" factor of the names. I loved how it shows that even today God's grace and forgiveness is still the same as it was in Bible times. Sin is sin and will be punished, but after true repentance, comes forgiveness and peace. less
