Finished 'Read through the wind'! :D
it's a book about a girl's life in the 1900s.. how she was originally a child of the streets, surviving, and how one day her life was turned around due to an accident that happened (she got kicked by a horse), and how she was subsequently brought into a reverend's household. The reverend took care of her till she grew older, and the story follows her as she ran away from home after being coerced by a guy to run away with him, and the life that follows thereafter. The book shows us her demise into dreaded circumstances and fundamentally deals with the themes of desire (for a lover, for a child), trust (in God's character) and the loss of it.
Not exactly a very excellent read, but was refreshing enough to see how the bible verses are brought out in the life of her. The book also showed the girl (Kassandra) dealing with questions of whether God's forgiveness and grace extends to her in these circumstances and is a keen reminder (to me) of how God's grace extends beyond our sins (and how there are people who genuinely love you for who you are, despite what happened in your life :)
If I have to put it on a scale of 5, I'd give it a 3 :)
