A Breath Of Hope - A Book Review

A Breath of Hope by Lauraine Snelling is the second book in the Under Northern Skies series.

I am so in love with this series!  I am a huge fan of Lauraine Snelling and her Blessing series in one of my all time favorites.  This new series is going to be equally as good, and high up on my favorites list, if it continues to follow the pattern it has been.

I don't know how she does it, but this author makes me feel like the characters are family.  The way she describes them allows me to connect with each on a very personal level.  I love how each book introduces new characters, but there is still a focus on the original characters.  This is great when you form a connection with characters.  You know that you will continue to read about them and know what's going on in their lives as well.

In this book, Ivar and Nilda join Rune and his family in Minnesota.  Rune and Signe still have a constant struggle with Uncle Einar, but due to tragedy they learn why he is like he is and the family comes together like never before.

I definitely recommend this book, but you must read the series in order!  This is not a good stand alone book.  To better connect with the characters you need to start from the beginning.

***Thanks to Bethany House Publishing for providing me a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
