"This was one of my least favorite of the series. I have a great deal of ambivalence about Karen Kingsbury books. Generally I find the stories soap-operaish, juvenile, and often contrived and unrealistic. Often I find the characters immature and get disgusted when 30-ish Christians respond emotionally and hurtfully to a contrived difficulty with the maturity of a 13-year old. (Yes, I am extremely left-brained.) They do way too much emotional reacting and not enough pro-active thinking--most Christians in my life are way more mature than that. However, when the characters finally do get around to thinking, forgiving, seeking answers in prayer, Scripture, and counseling, I suddenly love Karen Kingsbury and her biblical insights--they just take way too long to get there! I would highly recommend her stories and writing style to adolescents and young adults, but for someone who's been around the block a few times, the characters' often silly immaturity can get very annoying. The Bible lessons she works into the solutions to her problems are so right-on and really touch me where I live. So, hate her soap-opera. dragged-out writing/love her theology. Just for the Bible insights, I will probably continue to read her books, even if I have to skip over parts where 30-year-olds are reacting like adolescents. I will have to read every Karen Kingsbury book twice--the first time just to know what idiotic parts I can skip over and what deep parts to re-read for the Bible and life lessons."
"Would I give up what I know and love for fame? Would I turn from the life I was brought up in, as a Christian, to take a chance at being famous? Or would I listen to what God wants for me in my life? Those are the central questions in this book. The first in a series, that I can't wait to finish reading, this book looks at how fame can change what people see and how the look at life and what they want from it."
"I love how Karen brings the Baxters and friends into her storyline. The books portray normal familes and the situations they face and how thier strong faith brings them through."
