A Daughter's Devotion

MacDonald books are always a good read. They speak to your heart of spiritual things without being preachy. This book..while it has no real plot...will nevertheless endear itself to you. Mary..the devoted daughter is such a good character study...and you will enjoy all the people she touches with her simple faith in God. If the story starts a bit slow...stick with it....it is worth investing your time in. I have read it at least three times...and always come away from it feeling uplifted!

This was a satisfying Macdonald story, delivering some excellent Christian philosophy, in you don't mind being preached to--and if you do mind that, you shouldn't read any of Macdonald's books--while entertaining you with believable and interesting characters and some twists and turns in plot. The ending was somewhat surprising and very good.
