 First, I loved the dedication to an avid book reader, Susan.  This definitely scored high points for the author! Second, the story of foster care has touched my heart in such a special way.  I enjoy reading stories about people who have prevailed despite extremely difficult times in their lives. Third, the characters in the story are so relatable.  I enjoyed the dynamic between Zoey and John Parker.  I also enjoyed how John Parker sought God in everything that he did and also looked for ways to mentor other people.   Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for the arc. The opinions are my own.

 These suspense stories get me every time, especially when a child is involved.  I definitely didn't know who was involved until the end of the story.  I enjoyed the characters of Sam, Mari and Theo and especially liked how hard Mari fought for Theo.

 This is a hard book to read as it's in the midst of a nuclear attack but the story is so interesting.  The choices that are made by the characters and their resilience to rise above the circumstances is so inspiring.  I look forward to seeing what happens in the next book.    Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for the arc.  The opinions are my own.

 Wow!  The puns and misadventures in this book were such a treat!  Katie had such a humble view of herself and didn't take herself seriously.  Her ability to laugh off her blinders and find the joy in each day was so endearing.  Katie's descriptions of Graeme painted him in such a good light.  Mirren was an incredible character and a person you would want in your corner.  Lachlan was just adorable as could be.   Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for the arc.  The opinions are my own.

 Such a great book!   I wanted the book to end to see who was behind the mischief but in the same way I didn't want it to end.   Jenna and Max were enjoyable characters and the supporting characters were also interesting.  I especially enjoyed Jenna's grandma! The suspense was just the right amount to keep the reader wanting to keep the pages turning! Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for the arc.  The opinions are my own.

 Bethanne and Candace are cousins but come from two separate worlds (one is Amish and one isn't) but their stories intersect in a terrible way.  Bethanne has had a violent encounter in the past and Candace has a stalker.  I enjoy how the cousins support each other throughout the story.  There is quite a bit of suspense in the story as the reader seeks to uncover who is the stalker.   Thanks to netgalley and the publisher for the arc.
