"Not A Sparrow Falls" by Linda Nichols

"Not A Sparrow Falls" is a story about a woman in her mid-twenties who has found herself in a life that she would never have chosen.  In a desperate attempt to be free, she flees and finds herself making a new life for herself in a new place, as a new person.  Just when things are seemingly perfect and she has almost forgotten about what she left behind, the past catches up and she is forced to face it.  This is a story about faith and hardship...about being washed clean and experiencing true freedom in Christ.

I found the beginning of the book to be a bit cheesy and expected this to be a typical "Christian novel", filled with all the cliche Bible verses and "perfect" Christian characters.  While it does have some of that, I found myself enjoying the story and feeling along with a little bit of what the characters were experiencing.

If you are looking for a book to cozy up with on a Saturday afternoon, this is a good option.  It's an easy read, and well written.

I received this book from the Bethany House Publishers book review program and am under no obligation to write a positive review.
