Just As I Am
review 1: This is book 2 in the "Just As I Am" series from Smith. Smith continues new Christian Mayla's journey to living a life in Christ.Mayla has been a Christian for 9 months and a lot has happened. In this title even more happens as Mayla loses her job, is asked to house a teen runaway, decides to travel to Florida to visit long lost family, and has to navigate a host of other people and small problems. As Mayla encounters these challenges she learns a lot about God and trusting him.Smith ends her two book series with Mayla on a positive note. I didn't like it quite as much as book 1 - I'm thinking because this one was a lot more typical Christian than the first. But it was a decent read.
review 2: Another good read by Virginia Smith! It's been almost a year sin
... morece Mayla gave her life to Jesus, a year of much growth and excitement. Except things are now falling apart for our heroine! Mayla struggles with her job, her friends, her regrets, and even puts her foot in her mouth and makes things awkward between herself and the man she is attracted to. When she decides to visit family in Florida, Mayla never dreams her problems will literally follow her down there and make her confront the deep parts of her heart. I thought the story started out a little slow, but the threads are so tightly woven that I couldn't put it down once I got into it. I'll be looking for more from this author! less
