Miriam's attraction for Trygve is growing. Ingegborg is dealing with her loss. The awful bank manager is causing more troubles than he is helping, and Thorliff is fed up with him to the point of almost beating the fellow up. I'm not doing a good job on this summary.... I'm sorry. Next time I'll use the actual one, but for now this will have to do.
I'm giving this book 4.5 stars.
1: This one was better than the last one, but I still say the last one is the best. We'll see after Streams of Mercy.
2: This might or might not be a SPOILER but I don't care if it is. I was laughing so hard I was crying when Miriam up and punched that awful man. I couldn't help myself. It was the best thing ever!
3: My favorite part of the book has to be the way Trygve obviously adores his Tante Ingeborg. It was too sweet for words! And she just loves him right back and fills him up with as may sweets as he can eat.
4: Baby Roald...and then what Miriam did... and poor Elizabeth being stuck in the house for months... and oh I loved it. These characters stick with you, as does the place. Blessing is a wonderful place.
5: I love how the Lord sent people into Ingeborg's life to keep her from the pit. Emmy, and Manny, sweet inquisitive Inga, Kaaren, Trygve, and Miriam. (Inserts innumerable emojis here because words fail)
Not my longest review, probably not my best... but I do recommend reading the Blessing books.
I love Blessing and its citizens too.
