13 Reason Why Blog Tour (Book Review)

I am excited to announce that two amazing books are being released next week! Freedom by Faith Potts and Beloved by Kaitlyn Krispense.
I have the opportunity to participate in their 13 Reasons Why dual blog tour. I will be posting four different days.

Today I am reviewing Freedom.


Having just returned to American soil from the desert sands of the Middle East, James Greene is done with his life. 'Double amputee' doesn't seem like a strong enough phrase to label the physical and emotional pain he bears. Add the lack of love and communication with his family members, the demons that haunt him day and night, and he can find nothing worth living for. Ending it all is the only way out. 

Alexandria Lorance is a not-so-ordinary physical therapist, content with aiding in her patients' recoveries. Her work gives her fulfillment, but alone in the silence, she still endures the hidden scars of a past, unhealthy relationship. Reminding herself that true healing is found in Christ alone, she seeks to show kindness and love to everyone she meets.


When these two broken ones' paths intersect, the spark of friendship is ignited, bringing hope and joy to both. Can they step out of the darkness of suffering and into the freedom of grace? 


A Marine, broken by war. A therapist, scarred by words. A chance meeting in a parking lot bonded them together. But can love grow in these two hurting hearts? Or are they truly too broken to ever find lasting happiness?

My Review:
Freedom is such a good book!! I love Faith’s writing, she is such a talented author. I always look forward to her books, but this one sounded a bit different. One of the main characters tried to commit suicide. That made me not too sure about the book because I thought that was a bit of a dark and depressing topic and I prefer to read happy books. Well, I shouldn’t have worried. This book was filled with hope and had a great message that God has a plan and purpose for everyone. Even those who are in dark times. This book also had a great amount of the sweetest romance. The characters were so great. I love James and Alex. They are so cute together! Their witty comments, their relationship, everything about them! Freedom truly is a wonderful book!
*I received an ebook version of this book in exchange for my honest review.



About the author:

Saved by God's grace, Faith Potts is a teenage writer and homeschool graduate, living with her family and beloved yellow labs in the North Carolina mountains. When she’s not weaving stories, consuming large amounts of coffee, reading stacks of books, or studying American Sign Language, she can be found laughing harder than is healthy, daydreaming, and—of course—blowing dandelions.
