Book Review of Need You Now

Need You Now
steelergirl83 avatar reviewed on + 54 more book reviews


Beth Wiseman is widely known in the Christian fiction market and beyond for her amazing Amish fiction and now with this book, Need You Now, I have the feeling that she will gain notoriety with even more readers. I'm not usually one for fiction without romance but this book really grabbed me, so much so that I read it straight through in a day. Need You Know is not just a book about marriage but families and friendship as well as love and loss. I'm a twenty-something who has never been married but I found myself relating to almost every character in the book from working mom Darlene who is just looking for some independence to Grace, her teenage daughter who is trying to figure out how to deal with her life. If you are thinking that maybe that this isn't a book for you like I was at first definitely give it a try, you may be surprised. Anyone who is a Wiseman fan will definitely see her knack for bringing to life great characters who could be your neighbor down the street to life in this book. She definitely does not shy away from tough issues like cutting, infidelity, or loss of faith. This really is a book for any reader, even teens who like a good story.
