Search - Angels Watching over Me (Shenandoah Sisters, 1)

Terrific writting by Michael Phillips... This was a quick read... I have already started into the second of the series... Two young girls from different world come together after the civil war... Both of their families have been killed... they learn to take care of eachother become best of friends, a trust in God to bring them through many challenges...dg

I really enjoyed this story. This point of view is through the childs eyes; its their story of what happened back during the civil war times. It was facinating and gripping. These were VERY BRAVE girls in very difficult times. They band together and learn how to trust God for their needs and protection.

One of the most interesting and beautiful series i have read, and i have read alot of them. Each book really will stand alone, but it is so nice to start this series from the beginning, since this is number 1. It is a very touching story and i felt as if i were on the plantation and cotton was growing in the far field and jam and biscuits were warm and dripping in the mornings and that Southern breeze i loved so well when i was in the south is such a beautiful way to end the day. Times were expected to be hard but there is also so much faith and love in this series. It will make you wake up and FEEL this era.

I really enjoyed this book and the entire Shenandoah Sisters Series. Coming from the south it is nice to read from this perspective.

Very deep and touching recount of girls stranded on the plantation with only each other to depend on and don't forget their childlike faith in God.

This touching story about the bad state of the South after the war, was sad. The courage of the slave girl helping the plantation owners daughter was the core of the book. Thank goodness she found her Mama's Bible, which gave her strength to learn to read better.
Michael Phillips knows how to write about the Civil War, he has real insight. Can't wait to read what happens next.
