In Lynn Austin's, Eve's Daughters, you become so enchanted and consumed by their life stories that you don't want the novel to end. The character development is amazing and though each woman is her own person, with varied personalities I loved each of them. Their blessings. dreams, resilience, strengths and struggles are so relatable that Ms. Austin gives us a vision into the life of a woman, for we are all Eve's daughters.
This is a very well written Christian novel, one that their beliefs are a part of their story but not unrealistic and fluffy by any means. In my opinion, everyone would love this story regardless of their faith or lack there of.
Brenda, thank you so much for recommending this book, it is a treasure.
Great historical fiction and a story that I will always remember.
