~*Book Review!*~

Book: There You'll Find Me by Jenny B. Jones
My rating: 4/5
I received this book free in exchange for a review from BookSneeze

I was drawn to this book because it takes place in Ireland. Being of Irish descent, this always appeals to me. I didn't notice it was 'Christian Lit' or 'Teenage Chick Lit' until I was well into it. That only means that this book is never too "preachy" or "juvenile".

Finley has lost her way and a bit of her faith. She is struggling with the death of her brother, and she's not sure if God is listening. I've felt like this in my life before, so I can relate. It feels as if you are not being heard and all you want to do is shout louder and louder so that maybe some day you'll get an answer.

I enjoyed the interaction between Finley and Mrs. Sweeney. One never giving too much, but the other giving just enough. They worked well together and brought out the best in each other. By the end of their time together, I was crying because they both got what they wanted. Their voice was finally heard. Finley made a difference and Mrs. Sweeney was finally understood.

The Beckett character was interesting, but I'm glad it did not overshadow the true meaning of this book. He was kind of a diversion, but he also kept Finley on her toes and asking questions. He provided support when she needed it the most. She also changed his life for the better, too.

This is a very inspirational book. I enjoyed it immensely and I look forward to reading more from this author. Her style of writing is very appealing to me. She's very on topic and has a way of putting the reader in the middle of the action. I'll forgive her for making me cry because that just means she's good at what she does.

I would recommend this book for anyone that has a fondness for 'chick lit' or inspirational titles because it is both. A very enjoyable read!
