In the style of Nicholas Sparks or Danielle Steele, this is a simply written and fast moving novel that is highly predictable and leaves little to the imagination.

This is a sweet book that makes you appreciate and remember the old fashioned ways of the world and relationships.

This reviewer really liked the book. The group, however, had reservations. Our discussion was shorter than most months. The group felt that only a few of the characters were developed and the last chapter wrapped things up too much. The group didn't feel the character, Malcolm, needed to know as much as was revealed in the end. The book was about forgiveness and while the group believed in forgiveness to move on, they felt that in the end it was a little unrealistic.

This was a very interesting look at a family and how two people can see the same thing differently.

Overall it was a nice, easy read. I loved the idea of the "Wednesday Letters" and the drama they created for the 3 children but at the end, God saved everyone. And while I know God does save, it made the end too neat and unbelievable.

The first chapter of this book was touching as was the premise of a husband writing weekly letters to his wife during their long marraige. However, the bulk of the story was about the couple's children, who were not likeable or real. After the first chapter, the book lost it's charm and never got it back. Too bad, it was a very good premise. And the story had potential. But, I felt the characters were lacking.

How many of you would forgive, without hesitation, the rapist of your mother who turns out to be your father; in minutes no less?! Maybe those who loved this book - but not me. I really thought this book had a lot of potential while the kids were finding out just who their parents were and what really happened in their relationship; it fell apart so quickly, became so unbelievable and ended horribly! I can not recommend this book to anyone, Christian or otherwise. AUTHORS, if you are out there, please don't try to convert readers to Christianity through your writing by trying to disguise it in a novel!

I chose this book for our club and greatly regretted it. It was juvenile in its plot and writing style. Lacked any kind of emotional attachment to the story line. Not sure why this book was rated so high?

Not your "token" family and love book. A great read that kept me up late and made me smile and breath a sigh of happiness when it was done. It made an impact and made me uplifted and happy. Sounds silly, but it is a simple book with a simple message that is interesting and told well. I really loved it!

A quick read read. But a wonderful book about old fashioned values of family, love, and forgiveness. With so much going on in the world is was a great read with a great ending.

If you like love stories, this one is very good.

An amazing story of forgiveness!

The book description and blurbs on this book were the most inaccurate I have ever seen, rising to a level of fraudulent advertising. Our group felt it had been hoodwinked into reading it. The characters were not real people, and the dialogue was not that of real people, either. The religious message was overbearing. The plot was not believable. If the author had some writing skills, he may have been able to get his message across a little more convincingly, but that was certainly not the case with this book. Unless you are a church-based book group looking to discuss pro-life issues, I cannot warn you off this book strongly enough!

I thought that book at first was quite slow to develop- but midway through I could not put it down.
