Book Review of According to the Pattern (Living Books Romance, No 69)

According to the Pattern (Living Books Romance, No 69)
reviewed on


Grace Livingston Hill writes very innocent, very old-fashioned romance. Compared to most of the books of Ms. Hill's that I have read, this one feels more gritty and real (if you can use those words in reference to Ms. Hill's books at all!)...definitely dealing with a more serious subject matter. I'm reading it for the second time, and it strikes me again how different the times in which she wrote were. This is a wife fighting for her marriage, for her husband--going toe to toe with a woman some would consider more refined, more beautiful, and definitely wealthier, and determined to never back down. Best of all, she finds God in the middle of everything. I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves Grace Livingston Hill.
