Counted Worthy: A Book Review

Counted Worthy by Leah E. Good
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I received Counted Worthy yesterday afternoon, started reading immediately. Kept me up until eleven.

Today, practically all I've done is read Counted Worthy.

What did I expect?

An AMAZING debut by my friend, Leah, that not only was dystopian, but Christian.

What did I get?

A do hard things story.
And exactly what Brett Harris said that is printed on the cover, "[A] PHENOMENAL DEBUT."
I knew for sure that it would be awesome, but not as awesome as this.

It was gripping. And I cried.

Another thing I would like to say is that the beginning reminded me a LOT of The Book Thief by Markus Zusak.

Read the sample on Amazon, you'll understand.

And I couldn't believe this was Leah's debut! The writing is incredible!

I love her writing voice so much.

The story amazes me.

Inspires me.

Heather lives in fear of repeating her past. She steals Bibles from the sorting center. Then one day the police trace a Bible back to her house, her world just starts to crumble.

This story, it has inspired me to trust in God completely, even when I am scared.

I recommend this book to absolutely everyone.

I would thoroughly like to thank Leah for sending me a copy of Counted Worthy. I cannot wait to lend it to my cousin. ;)

I cannot wait for more of Leah E. Good's books to release, especially Counted Worthy's sequel!

Update

Worst blogger goes to me, put your hands down.

My life has just been EXREMELY busy.

I'm working on some picture posts.

But so, we've finished traveling. WE'RE DONE. The next time we move is back to Papua (hopefully).

It's NaNoWriMo time! Whoo!

I'm writing Underground, an idea that was on my idea a lot during September.

Here's my back cover blurb:

It's only 2028.
But there's been a few changes.
Anyone who worships God, has gone Underground. And they've lived there peacefully for a couple months.
But when one girl and her friends find a site where some Jews were living, has been replaced with blood.
So now the people are on the run. Not to mention all the struggles that are on their shoulders with just be Underground with hardly any food or drink.
And when someone betrays them to the Communists, what will happen to the Christians?
Will they as people believing in God be able to withstand this? Or are we waving good-bye to men who let their light shine before men?

I'm 18k into that story, which reminds me, I need to go get 20k.

My "baby" brother, Jeremy, will be turning 2 soon!! :D

My cousin and I are going to go to something like Disciple Now one of these November weekends. So I'll probably be taking a Internet break for a day. ;)

Anthem Lights is amazing, by the way. *cough cough*

Annnnd that might be all, really.

Pray that our visas come through soon. :)

What's up with ya'll?! :D
