Book Review

I met a new author yesterday. I read a book by Ann Tatlock called A Place Called Morning. I'm not usually a fan of modern Christian fiction, but Ann Tatlock manages to step out of the bounds of genre and write a story that tells Truth without being trite.

I expected a sweet romance, but the story never slipped down to that. It talked instead of family, guilt, and forgiveness. The peace that God brings when we let go of ourselves.

A Place Called Morning reminded me a little of the best parts of Francena Arnold's books. (One of my favorite authors who wrote in the fifties.) I heartily recommend the book and am looking forward to reading more books by the Ann Tatlock.
