Where Hope Begins

Some heavy issues and decisions in this one, and I ended up in tears, both the happy and sad kind (so be warned). ?? I loved the writer’s ability to put the reader IN the situations and really make them think about how they’d handle a myriad of dilemmas. Great characters, emotional angst, but in the end it’s a question of faith and forgiveness and how difficult those things are at times. Simply lovely writing here. Looking forward to reading more from this author...happy I discovered her! 4.5/5⭐️

I received a complimentary copy of this book from Thomas Nelson through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own. This book had a lot of good turns and twist in the plot. Some of the things that happened I wasnt expecting but it was very exciting to see how everything worked out in the end. This book was all about forgiveness, 7second chances, bravery, family, and love. The different characters were great and well written. Each of them have there own story that winds them together. Savannah world gets shaken in a way she never expected it. This book made me tear up a couple of times.

WOW. From the very first page I loved (and hated) this book – for all the right reasons. I can’t recall any other book waking up so many different emotions; at times I was so angry I wanted to throw the book across the room and other times I was rooting and bawling my eyes out. But that’s real life; and that’s what I love about Catherine West’s writing in this book. She was able to touch on very difficult subjects, but still leave the reader hopeful and encouraged. This is an absolute MUST read!!

An enjoyable Christian fiction that dealt with some pretty horrible circumstances compassionately and gracefully. Not in a saccharine way but very human way. I received a copy from NetGalley and this is my honest review.

I loved this story so much!!! The emotions were real and it’ll tug on your heart strings. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, but most of all you’ll fall in love with these characters. It was beautifully written and I would definitely recommend this book to everyone!!

I have in the past found that many Christian authors won't touch on certain issues. I am happy to say, and was very pleasantly surprised that this book was a very emotional book because the author was not afraid to go there. EXCELLENT

Catherine West gracefully braids together grief, humor, and longing in her newest book. Where Hope Begins is a beautiful and heartrending story of a marriage and the two people who must decide if it is worth saving. A story for anyone who's had to start over--and those who wonder where others find the courage and strength to do so.
