My Review: The Reunion



About the Book:
There are people in this world we pass right by without giving a second thought. They are almost invisible. Yet some of them have amazing stories to tell, if we'd only take the time to listen . . .

Aaron Miller was an old, worn-out Vietnam vet, a handyman in a trailer park. Forty years prior, he saved the lives of three young men in the field only to come home from the war and lose everything. But God is a master at finding and redeeming the lost things of life. Aaron is about to be found. And the one who finds him just might find the love of his life as well.

Expert storyteller Dan Walsh pens a new tale filled with the things his fans have come to love--forgiveness, redemption, love, and that certain bittersweet quality that few authors ever truly master. Fans old and new will find themselves drawn into this latest story about how God cares for everyone.

My Comments:
The nice thing about fiction is that you can pull together improbable occurrances and turn them into a story.  The Reunion is a sweet enjoyable read that requires several improbable occurrances but when they all happen, they make you smile.

The Reunion is Christian fiction and one of the main characters tells others that his life was a mess until he found Jesus.  Other characters mention church-going and they pray before meals.  In short, if you don't care for religious fiction, this is too religious a book for you, but I would not characterize the book as preachy.  Rather, it is about people for whom faith is an important part of life.  

I'd like to thank the publisher for making a review copy available.  Grade:  B.
