Neverending Mercy by Latisha Sexton Review

 

I absolutely loved Neverending Mercy by Latisha Sexton. I was excited to be on the launch team for this book because I loved the author’s In the Midst series. Even though I knew this was a different genre, I wanted to give it a try, and I’m so glad I did.

Here's a look at what the book is about:

I loved that there was a dual timeline, but unlike other dual timeline books I’ve read, the characters in both timelines are the same. We get to see Ruth, Crosby, Haley and their families in the present day, but we also get to see them in their younger years as they grow up together.

The story begins with Ruth and Haley meeting, but then, in the present day timeline, we discover that “something” happened sometime in the past that destroyed their friendship. The story is told from both Ruth and Crosby’s points of view in both timelines.

I love the way details of the past are slowly revealed to help us understand what is going on in the present. There are times I get so mad at Haley, and wonder why in the world Ruth continues to remain her friend. But the biblical truths come through so well in this story. The forgiveness, the redemption, the faith in God, the growth in Christ.

My emotions were all over the place while reading this book. And yes, I was warned to have tissues handy, and I will warn you the same. Though there are some very devastating scenes, there are also heartwarming scenes, and hilarious scenes. The different relationships in the book are well shown and I love the way they evolved.

Definitely a book I highly recommend.

I received this book for free from the author as a part of the launch team and was not required to write a favorable review. These are my own, honest thoughts.
