The Writings Of A Young Woman In Christ

Aug. 31, 2009 - "Coming Attractions" by Robin Jones Gunn

Hello Everyone!!!
I have been entered into a social media tour for Coming Attractions by Robin Jones Gunn. What I'm supposed to do is read the book and write a review on it and post it on my blog.  So I have read the book and here is my review...
 
In this book, we get to follow Katie Weldon through quite a few ups and downs. Through her last year of college, her relationship with her boyfriend, Rick, through graduation, and through tough decision-making about the future and relying on the Lord about what comes next. In the first book, I was very excited about Robin continuing the stories through Katie Weldon about all of our favorite characters. I had discovered Christy Miller when I was twelve and read the books and fell in love with everyone. And then I was able to continue on with Sierra Jensen, and then on through the college years. When it ended, I was sad. I felt like I had to say goodbye to good friends of mine that I had grown close to. Which is why when Robin started writing about Katie Weldon, I was very quick to pick up the first copy I could find.   I've enjoyed reading about Katie, and I've enjoyed both books so far, but without a doubt Coming Attractions has touched me the most in the Katie series.  I felt a connection. The book caused me to grow close to Katie and feel what she was feeling. I laughed with her, shed some tears and had more then one case of goose bumps!    This book is amazing. Definitely the best Katie Weldon book yet in the series. Robin Jones Gunn has such a heart for the Lord and He most definitely works through her to bless us with all these amazing God-filled books for teens and woman.  I highly recommend reading this book and the others in the series!!! They are very uplifting, real-to-life sort of books and I highly recommend them to any who are interested.  I can't wait to find out what happens to Katie and the gang next!
