How Sweet the Sound wasnt the easiest read, and nor should it be. Its not intended to give the reader a stomach of warm fuzzies, but meant to cleanse the evil that has cloaked these characters and give them a hope beyond the desperate depths they have fallen into.
Its not pleasant, its not comfortable, but I dont want to talk about what the book is not. I want to say what the book is. Because it offers hope. Redemption. Love. Grace. Forgiveness. The opening of a flower to the glow of Gods love and warmth.
The story documents much what is happening in the inner workings of our main characters. I thought the pace was a bit sluggish, because so much of the story took place in the characters retrospect, but there is much for how God plumbs the depth of our hearts, even into the darkest, most secret places we attempt to hide from His light.
Overall, I would recommend the novel to fans of Gina Holmes and lovers of emotional evoking womens fiction.
This review is my honest opinion. Thanks to the publishers through CFBA for my copy to review.
