[author: Tracie Peterson] really gives me a lesson on patience in this trilogy. So many times, often the same person, would cause me so much strife and frustration, but the example person/character in the book would follow the right pathway of a Christian and point out just how impatient I was for them. I know it's just a book, but it makes me really think about reality. There were other characters that went through all the actions of both right and wrong and the feelings that you feel for their paths are powerful to reflect in truth. ( )
