Coming Attractions- Book Review and Giveaway

I have been reading about Katie Weldon and all of her friends since I was 13 years old (The Christy Miller and Sierra Jensen series'), so I pretty much run out and buy a copy of any new books that come about them- it is kind of like catching up with old friends and finding out what has been happening in their lives since the last time we talked!

Well, Coming Attractions, the newest book in the Katie Weldon series, did not disappoint- in fact I think it could possibly be one of Robin Jones Gunn's best works to date! This book does not just embody entertaining fiction but gives readers much to ponder about forgiveness and following God's direction in their own lives. As always, the characters are likeable and relateable, and Robin leaves just the right amount of suspense for the final pages of the book!

I laughed and literally cried with Katie as she graduated college and moved on towards the next amazing adventure of her life! I cannot wait to hear what happens with Katie next and desperately hope that Robin has much more in store for us over the next few years- the 4th book simply can't be released soon enough! When you read Coming Attractions (especially if you are a fan of Robin's books) I am sure you will understand!

This book truly caused me to reflect on my own ideas of forgiveness and even helped me come to terms with some ways I needed to forgive myself. It also reminded me of how God has a sense of humor about keeping our futures a mystery- I can plan all I want, but in the end He has very specific plans laid out for me, and I like that! It is nice to know (especially right now) that someone knows and understands what is going on!

To purchase your own copy, just head on over to Amazon and pick one up! You can also find the book along with lots of fun news and products at RobinGunn.com.
