Why did I read it?
Two years ago my friend Katy sent me a link to Robin Jones Gunn's blog post call "I'm in." I read it and jumped and squealed and smiled for hours straight. The Christy Miller books are some of my favourite books of all time and the saga was continuing, finally, with The Married Years.
Forever with You picks up pretty much where we leave Katie in the final book of her series. If you're not a Christy Miller fan this probably means nothing to you, but to the rest of us it soo means something. In Forever with You we are plunked right into the wonderfulness that is Christy and Todd's marriage. What could be better?
Robin Jones Gunn always writes good stories with a good lesson to go along with it. It's one of the reasons I think every girl should read Christy Miller. There is always something to learn through Christy or Todd or Katie or Sierra or one of their other friends. This time around it was trusting God even when it seems like nothing is ever actually going to happen.
There was only one thing I did not like about this book. Holy typos Batman. In Katie in Waiting I guessed there were maybe 5-10 mistakes in the whole book. In Forever with You there seemed to be at least one per chapter. It was terrible. It really takes away from the book. This is the issue with self publishing (which she basically did). Robin, please let me edit your books for you. I will do it 100% free of charge and I won't tell a single soul what happens in the books. Please. If not me, someone else. Someone else who is as bothered about this as I am so they won't miss anything.
Rating: 4.5/5 = Really liked it
It's Christy Miller. Married to Todd Spencer. There is seriously nothing about this book (plot wise, not grammar wise) that could get better.
Recommendation:
I always say that every girl should read Christy Miller. If you are a female, go buy all the Christy Miller books and read them. If you're a boy I highly doubt you'll like them. I would never tell a boy to read these...but go ahead if you want.
