Review of Starflower

Starflower by Anne Elisabeth Stengl has been my favorite fiction book that I have received to review.  Stengl is an excellent writer- so much so, that my husband, who teaches college English, picked up the book and complimented her writing and was drawn in to the well-crafted world that she created.  I loved that she based the story on the poem The Hound of Heaven.  My husband and I both thought that she did an excellent job of creating the fairy world and the other worlds that were included in the book.  I was drawn in, and very much enjoyed getting to know the characters and seeing them grow and develop.  I am looking forward to reading more of Stengl's books, and would definitely pass this one on to friends and family.

Review of Father Cry

Father Cry by Billy Wilson is a book that is unfortunately very needed in this day and age.  It address the issues associated with a culture where many fathers are often absent.  It is a great tool for those who would seek to minister to children, teens, and even adults who have grown up without fathers (or a mother in some cases).  It is also designed to address and help the reader deal with issues they may have experienced due to not having a mother or father.  It points to our Heavenly Father and His unconditional love for us, and offers great hope for healing.  I would pass this along to friends, especially those who grew up in these types of situations and to those who are ministering to kids and teens.
