All Things New by H. G. Smith

bethgiven's review against another edition

3.0

This one started out pretty slow for me -- maybe it's been awhile since I've read Lynn Austin, or maybe it's because I did this on audio so I couldn't skim, but the way every piece of dialogue had to be hashed out and over-explained felt so cumbersome. That and I think Gone With the Wind had spoiled me for any books on the Reconstruction.

Still, by the end of the book I was really enjoying the storyline. Not a life-changing read but a satisfying one. Lynn Austin is my favorite author for Christian fiction -- not quite as sugar-coated as the rest in the genre.

Is there a So-bad-it's-good rating? It telegraphed the plot each step, and the characters frequently gave me the giggles. Still, I read if all, if only to prove myself right

I love Lynn Austin! All her books are so encouraging and make you think even though they fictional. I need to catch on the books she’s wrote that I haven’t read.
