A Time to Dance is the first Karen
Kingsbury book I have ever purchased. On a shopping trip to Mardel, I saw many
of her books on the clearance shelves, and I looked through most of them,
hoping to find a whole series of books I could read. This was the only series that
was in the clearance area, so I also purchased A Time to Embrace, which is the other book in the Timeless Love
Series.
The
truth is I have not been a fan of fiction for most of my adult life, though I
loved it as a kid. However, I have heard many wonderful things about her books
for so long, I decided to give it a try. I was so glad that I did. I really
liked this book for many reasons.
Being
married to a teacher, I found myself drawn to the John and Abby Reynolds
family. They were a compelling group, and the stories that took place with this
family were interesting and believable. Unfortunately, some of the topics, mostly
the infidelity, riddle our world right now, tearing apart families and hearts.
I found myself empathizing with both John and Abby in their situation.
This
book hits a certain place of the heart where the reader may begin to think back
to the days where she first met her mate, the anticipation, the memories… And
it can cause her be thankful for all they have been through.
While
this book may be considered fiction, I think it probably happens every day with
your neighbors, your brothers and sisters, anyone who loses sight of the
important things. It’s a good reminder to be grateful for the relationships you
have in your life.
I
like it when fiction crosses into believable, and I look forward to
reading A Time to Embrace. Then, who
knows? I may move onto another Karen Kingsbury series.
