Book Review of Fall on Your Knees

Fall on Your Knees
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 2


This is an all time favorite for me. The richness of the characters and absolute depth of storytelling as you span time with the Piper family is simple and sheer brilliance. The dark and haunting undertones of child bride molestation and incest are disturbing for folks looking for vanilla pleasantries in reading, so beware if these areas will offend you. However, if you can get past the taboo of it, you'll fully appreciate MacDonald's gift of spinning a satisfying tale from start to finish.
