Doesn't She Look Natural (The Fairlawn Series #1) Doesn't She Look Natural by Angela Elwell Hunt


My review


rating: 4 of 5 stars
A lovely book that kept me turning the pages to see what would happen next. The book could be considered Christian Fiction, which for some folks is a turn on and for others a turn off. I found the book to have the right amount of faith and religious undertones. This is the first of 3 books (so far) and I hope the rest contain more about the family and the people of Mt. Dora as a whole. I have some hopes for what the next installments will contain, I shall have to wait and see if my ideas are the same ones Angela Hunt chose.



The funniest thing to me is that she positively nailed the mother/daughter relationship with Jennifer and Joella. I found myself nodding my head several times.



The biggest lesson that I gleamed upon finishing this book is PATIENCE.



Often times we have patience with everyone but our family. Why is that?



Which brings to mind this quote, "The ones in greatest need of our patience, are often the ones the hardest to give it to."
