About this listen

Eleven-year-old Grace Carter has a talent for hiding things. She's had plenty of practice, burying thoughts and feelings that might anger her strict evangelical pastor father, and concealing the deep intuition she carries inside. The Knowing, as Grace calls it, offers glimpses of people's pasts and futures. It enables her to see into the depth of her mother's sadness, and even allows Grace to talk to Isaac, her twin brother who died at birth. To her wise, loving Aunt Pearl, the Knowing is a family gift; to her daddy, it's close to witchcraft.

Grace can't see into someone's thoughts without their permission. But it doesn't take her special talent to know that her small community is harboring its share of secrets. A young girl has gone missing. Within Grace's own family too, the cracks are widening, as her sisters Hope, Joy, and Chastity enjoy the normal life that eludes Grace. It's Grace's kinship with other outsiders that keeps her afloat - Lyle, a gentle, homeless man, and Lola, a free-spirited new girl at school. But when her mother lapses into deep depression after bringing home a new baby, Grace will face a life-changing choice - ignore her gift and become the obedient daughter her father demands, or find the courage to make herself heard, even if it means standing apart....

Good story

Aside from wanting to strangle her father, I enjoyed the story very much. Good pick.

I couldn't get enough of this book. The writing was picturesque and the narration was perfect. The story left me wondering what I was missing in seeing others and their unique gifts, and made me wonder about my own. love love love!

compelling

I would have been about the same age as Grace. Even though I didn't grow up in the midwest, the author's description of the time period is so accurate. I loved the writing, overall, the characters and a gift that is difficult to convey.
I'll be on the lookout for Eldonna Edwards' future books.

Slow but sweet

I really enjoyed this book. It's not something I normally listen to and stumbled across it after I listen to the narrator and was seeing what other books she's read.
