With Endless Sight
Cover art:
I just finished reading Allison Pittman's latest, With Endless Sight. It takes place around the time of the Civil War. Main character Belinda, the voice of the novel, and her family are setting out on an adventure to the West. When tragedy strikes, Belinda is forced to rely on her faith to get her through the many challenges that are thrown at her.
From the minute I started this book I was hooked. The characters were engaging and interesting, and the plot had multiple twists and turns. Allison does a great job of helping you see beyond the surface of her characters, and even the darkest character has a light.
My one qualm was the end of this book. It seemed a bit abrupt and unfinished to me. I'm not sure if another book is in the works (this is the third in a series) but I left with more questions than answers and I needed more resolution.
I am looking forward to more of Allison's books, and this is definitely worth the read. Overall it's a nice balance between the suspense of a fiction bestseller and the faith of a Christian novel. See for yourself.
