Summary: A wonderful book!!!!!!!!
Review: I enjoyed this book very much!! It has a clean fresh approach!! The only four letter words were hope, love, and pray. It tells a story of a much simpler life where hard times were approached with trust in God and neighbor helping neighbor. The characters were based on the hard working, church going type of people our Christian ancestors were who settled in this great country of ours and made it as great as it is today. I only wish we could go back to a time when we lived life with the same outlook that the characters in this beautiful book portrayed. It showed the true teachings of Christ thru their lifestyles of loving God and your neighbor. Thank you Lisha Kelly for this reminder of what we were placed on this earth for.

Review: I read this book in two days(and that's with having to care for a baby too.)I'm sure if I'd been alone I could have finished this book within a few hours.But you all know how it is with a baby;barely get anytime for yourself.Anyway,"Julia's Hope" is the perfect book for those of us who are tired of reading books that have just sex,foul language,and more immoral acts.This was a book set during the depression when life was hard on everyone,but it was more of a simpler time than in today's world.This book had such an impact on me...to remember the blessings that we do have and to turn the other cheek when someone does us wrong.This book also strengthened my faith that God will provide for our needs.I can not stress it enough that everyone should give this book a try.Most people, I think, will love it!

Summary: Julia's Hope is a smooth surprise in inspirational reading!
Review: I was attracted to read Julia's Hope by the mention of the abandoned house they took up residence in. It was a pleasant surprise and a relaxing, enjoyable read. Kelly's smooth, soothing writing style left me wanting to read more about the depression and the Wortham Family. I was in luck to see there was already a sequel out called Emma's Gift.

Summary: Julia's Hope
Review: What a wonderful book by a new author. I picked this book up at the library on a whim and loved it. The book tells the story of a woman who despite everything that happens to her and her family continues to have faith and hope that all will work out for the best. This is a subtly Christian novel. The author does not talk about religion directly and yet it is definetly a story of a Christian woman. We all can use this reminder of what faith, hope, and grace are all about. I recommend this book highly and look forward to Leisha's next book.
