Book Review of The Mountain Between Us

The Mountain Between Us
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 1


This was my first book from Charles Martin. He is a southern author, and as I now live in the south, I had the opportunity to hear him talk about about his books and his work at a "Meet the Author" event in the community in which I now live.

With no intention, in any way, to insult anyone, my friend and I detected a slight Christian perspective to his writing, and as neither of us are Christians we were at first unsure about this author and his writing style. However, we were quickly intrigued by this, gentle, intelligent young man, and his reviews of his current and past novels.

The review of The Mountain Between Us was the most intriguing to me, and I purchased the book at the end of the event.

This is a story about the life of a young doctor, who got on a plane with a stranger and an event which changed his life, and the life of the other passenger, with a twist I certainly did not expect. I completely enjoyed this wonderful story, the lovely, well written characters and an unexpected, totally surprising ending. Certainly an author I will be reading more of.......soon!
