The Harvest Of Grace is the third book in the Ada's House Series. I did not realize when I got this book that I would be reading the third book of a series that I have never read before. That didn't matter at all. This is a great "stand alone" book and I am sure a great "3'rd installment" as well. It drew me into the character's lives and I will be heading to the library ASAP to pick up the 1'st and 2'nd books of the series. That is one of the things I loved about this book. It captivated my interest so much and I became so attached to the character's that I want to know more about their history. Beginning with the very first chapter it had my attention. I couldn't put it down and to tell you the truth, it cost me a few hours of sleep. :)
One great thing about this book is that if you decide to read it without reading the whole series it has a nice summary at the beginning of the book. It tells "The Story So Far" giving a brief description of The Hope Of Refuge and The Bridge of Peace (the first two books in the series). That way you have a little history and a little knowledge of some of the characters you will be reading about. It also has at the back of the book, a list of the main character's and a description of each. I found this extra helpful and found myself flipping to the back of the book a couple time as I began the story to see who they were and how they were related.
One of the main points of this book is God's forgiving grace, accepting that grace, and giving that grace to other's who have done you wrong as well. It's not always easy but with a lot of prayer we can forgive those who have hurt us. This book is such a pleasant reminder of that. I would definetly recommend this book as it is a great read and an encouragement in your daily walk with Him.
