Karen Ball writes a very poignant story in A Test of Faith. The experiences Karen endured from the loss of her own dear mother makes her writing so real. I was caught up immediately in the mother-daughter relationship between Anne and Faith. This book is a reminder to those of us who many know someone in a similar situation of the love we can give by reaching out in friendship. One of the best books I have ever read.

Slow starter but soon picks up. A daughter/mother book that tells all to often the actual rebellion we sometimes do and then the regret years later. God's and our mother's forgiveness is quick but the forgiveness of ourselves takes years if ever. Will read more of her books.

An awesome book, that will fill you with emotions. I laughed, smiled, and cried a lot throughout! Having two daughters of my own, and an aging mother allowed me to relate to so much of the story - Great book!
Just picked this up at the Goodwill and must have been there for me. What a wonderful book and so much like what I have been going through in my life ! Truely a great book !
The back of the book says it all: a Mother, a Daughter and the God Who loves them both. This is a book for all mothers of rebellious daughters; this book is for all daughters who have mothers with health issues. This is a book for mothers and daughters who have found that the only way through the difficulties of life is prayer.
