A Thousand Tomorrows

The author weaves a tale that keeps me at the edge of my seat at all times! It's as if I know who she is talking about because she makes sure I know her characters well. The trail through the story pulls me into the story with them and it's as if the story is happening to me or to the people in my life. I identify completely with the challenges the characters face, and sometimes, they even help me see things in my own life that need to be addressed.

very good read

It is always the same, you can't put Karen's books down once you start reading them. I have read all of her books and I am waiting for the new book to come out.

A Heartwarming Tale of Love and Struggle

What motivates people to greatness? Often it is anger, sometimes it is determination to defy the odds. In this heartwarming tale of love and struggle, both of these emotions are displayed in the lives of Cody Gunner and Ali Daniels. Acclaimed Christian novelist, Karen Kingsbury shares insights into the world of rodeo, barrel racing and bull-riding, an environemnt that many of us are not familiar with and yet the reader finds himself becoming more interested this distant sport. Cody is the bitter son of an NFL great. His Dad left at an early age and Cody never forgave him or his mother. Ali is surrounded by loving parents, but she battles a fatal disease, Cystic Fibrosis. For Cody, his anger fuels his passion to ride. For Ali, her determination to live a life of purpose fuels her. In the midst of their individual quests, their paths cross and hearts once closed to love are now open. Even as they face Ali's impending death. It is clear that Karen wrote this book to be a bestseller and a Hallmark movie. It has all the right elements. And yet the reader's interest is kept because we're taken inside the unknown world of rodeo and the mysterious and yet incurable disease called Cystic Fibrosis. I came away with a greater appreciation for both, especiall those who struggle with CF. I had heard of the disease, but I did not really know what it was. Karen Kingsbury carefully educates the reader on the struggles, the medical treatments, the long-term prognosis, and everday life for those afflicted with this disease. If anything the beautiful storytelling and the delicated dialogue draw into the world of CF like never before. I personally came away with much greater compassion for the parents of CF-afflicted children. God bless them. This is an inspirational book, a family-time story, a heartwarming tale of hope, love, and forgiveness. You're entire family will enjoy it.

Not the usual Karen Kingsbury

I've never read a Karen Kingsbury book that I didn't like. The heart she puts in the development of her characters has always touched me and I don't believe I've ever read one of her books without shedding some tears. "A Thousand Tomorrows" certainly was no different. However what I did notice was different about this novel was the abscence of reference to scripture. In previous books scripture tended to be threaded througout the entire book. This just wasn't the case in this novel. Again, I certainly still enjoyed the book a great deal and read it in one sitting because as usual, Karen's characters drew me in and gripped my heart. There just seem to be a change in this book from her previous books. With that said, I learned that Karen's books don't have to meantion specific scripture to teach us all lessons about the love of God. Incredible author.
