Forever Friday by
Timothy Lewis, was a lovely story chronicling the married life of Gabe and
Pearl, as discovered through the weekly love poem Gabe sent his wife on a
postcard. This love story is viewed through the eyes of a recently divorced and
discouraged man who sees the postcards as a clue to how to have a happy
marriage.
Well-written and entertaining, Lewis does a good job of
juxtaposing the two stories into one good read.
As is becoming more and more common, elements previously
disallowed in Christian fiction, such as the Christian characters drinking
alcohol, were included in this book. Gabe and Pearl are presented as believers.
Otherwise, the story could pass for a good, clean, secular romance.
By the end of the book, this reader felt the bond between these two characters.
I received this book
for free from Blogging for
Books for this review.
