What a great way to start a new series. This is a slow paced book but well worth savoring. The secrets of the past are revealed through a daughter's curiosity and it was astonishing to me the punishment inflicted upon Earnest. Makes me grateful for Christ and the forgiveness He bestows upon us, instead of man determining what is appropriate. I love the realistic characters and how they show vulnerability, humility, and forgiveness. I also enjoyed the surprise at the end that leads into part of the storyline for book two. I could picture the beautiful clocks Earnest handcrafted and the beautiful jars of canned food, as the written word came to life on the pages. I can't wait to read The Timepiece. An enjoyable, thought provoking read.
I was blessed to win a copy of this book. The honest review and opinions are my own and were not required.
