When Sparrows Fall by Meg Moseley

3.0

I am thinking I shouldn't have chosen this book. It really wasn't my kind of book to begin with. However, I was intrigued.
The story is about a young widowed mother of 6 children. She is a member of a fundamental Christian church. She feels trapped in the church and can't figure out how to leave. When she gets hurt unexpectedly, her brother in law comes to the rescue. He tries to help her stay true to her beliefs but leave her church behind.
It did not start out well. About 20 pages in I wanted to quit and give up. I kept going and sure enough it was just a slow start. But, it was a rough ride for me. It felt like she hinted at secrets but wouldn't give them to you. It was frustrating after a while instead of intriguing. It felt like she was trying for false suspense or something. It all ended neatly, though. I am not sure if I would recommend the book, but it was worth reading. This book will be available May 2011.
