Each character had complete opposite views and felt they were each correct scripturally. Really, throughout the story, I could totally see each character's side. Their issues and concerns were believable. By the end, they each made a change in their views, but it was a realistic change that the reader could accept. On top of that, it was a fun read. :-)Sandi Roghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14133590559340429928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4394229508004811632.post-67229648705507992602010-06-21T14:40:58.559-06:002010-06-21T14:40:58.559-06:00Darlene,

(Currently reading Rain Gods) All the "good guys" and the "bad guys" have tremendous depth and reasons for acting as they do. He can make a sadist understandable and even ... pitiable.Darlene Franklinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12309528220394646410noreply@blogger.com
