My Review

Set in Russia during The Russian Revolution & World War 1 we follow the lives of the several Mennonite families. I dont know a lot about that time period so I enjoyed learning about it. I found myself wanting to know more about the revolution. We continue the story of Katarina and Johann as they navigate through the uncertain times. They had a lot of determination. I had a difficult time getting into this story. It started getting more interesting about halfway through the book. Janice Dick does a great job weaving scripture and the Lord’s wisdom throughout this story.
If you’re interested in the mennonite community and the Russian revolution, this would be a good story for you.

I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from the publisher. All views expressed are only my honest opinion.
