Amazing story

This book was better than I hoped it would be. I had enjoyed some of Jerry Jenkins other stories, but I think this is his very best one of all that I have read. It’s a fairly long story,But well worth the time put into it. The end was a complete surprise to me and was very delightful.

Wrecked

I had the opportunity to interview Jerry Jenkins’ son Dallas on my podcast. I asked Dallas, “Of all the books written by your dad, which is your very favorite?” His answer was Riven. I had never heard of it. To be honest, it began kind of slow as I tried to figure out the characters and where Jenkins was going with it, but in the end I was completely wrecked. I thought I had it figured out, but talk about a twist! So glad I finished this one. Tears are streaming as I write these words. You need this book!

Very good story

Seemed realistic and very interesting. Good character development and I liked how the two subplots wove together to the benefit each character and mutually provide what they were needing.

Good book

Enjoyed this book. Gonna go home and read my Bible. I only like to listen to my Christian fiction on the Sabbath. Well, this was so good, I ended up going over the Sabbath hours instead of moving on to a different book. Oh well. Now I’ll need to buy another Christian book for next Sabbath. 🤷🏽‍♀️

What a powerful book

Wow. All the way through this book each character became so real. My heart was sad and heavy with each time the young main character faltered and fell down. Each heartbreak so sad but the elder main character was so quietly strong and his faith tested so many times and yet he still believed in the Lord. I highly recommend this book. Thank you Mr Jenkins.

Awesome book, different narrator please

This book made me cry through the last 30 minutes. It is a well told story that I couldn't put down. The narrator, on the other hand, was annoying. He tried much too hard on the southern accents and most of them came out sounding like those comedians that make fun of rednecks. It was pretty bad and I'm not that hard to impress as far as narration goes. Just read the book.
