The Shape of Mercy
This has been quite a week of reading for me. I was a bit tired when I picked up Susan Meissner's "The Shape of Mercy." I was NOT disappointed.
The book tells the story of Lauren, a rich college student who takes a job transcribing a centuries-old diary. The writer she's bringing to life is a young girl alive during the turmoil of the Salem Witch Trials. As Lauren uncovers the truths long hidden by history, she learns about herself and what it means to stand up for what you believe.
Meissner's style is captivating, drawing you in with a lyric tone that is descriptive without being overly flowery. The story is thought-provoking, and you won't want to put it down.
Add "The Shape of Mercy" to your reading list today. You won't be sorry.
