Always a fan of Dee Henderson’s books, I eagerly awaited my
opportunity to learn more about the O’Malley’s. A prequel to the O’Malley
series, Jennifer was a heartwarming
little novella giving some nice background to Jennifer’s story. I liked the way
the gospel was clearly presented, the way Tom was patient with Jennifer’s
exploration of faith, and the way
**spoiler alert** Jennifer grapples with her diagnosis in light of the
loving God she just met. **end spoiler**
Though maintaining Henderson’s characteristically great
writing, I wish Jennifer had been a
full-length novel to go along with the others in the series. It was a charming
love story, but didn’t pack quite the punch the other books in the series did.
Having said that, reading it did make me anxious to go back and reread the rest
of the series.
I received a complimentary
copy of this book from Bethany House with no expectation of a positive review.
