Every Now and Then or Remember Tuesday Morning

This book had a good, strong character and I anxiously followed it to the very end. Alex Brady and his faithful K9, Bo, were believable. My tween grandson enjoyed a few lines from it now and again, due to policemen, SWAT, and a K9 dog being involved. I felt that the character, OWL, should have had a bit more involvement with Alex and the main scene of this book. Please read To The Moon and Back as another book of 9/11 tragedy and newfound joy by Karen Kingsbury. Another great read!

Remember Tuesday Morning is a great book!

I really enjoyed this book. It wasn't as great as the first and second books in this series, but it's still really good. I didn't like how you knew what was going to happen, like with Alex and Holly. I feel like they should've had some surprise at the end, but whatever. If you read this book, you'll need to read the first and second books first, so you know what's going on. All in all, it's a really good series!

Inspiring series

Please read the 3 book series. A MUST for any book lover!

Couldn't wait to turn the page!

Another "Great" from Karen Kingsbury! Exciting. A good read for a first responder.

Wonderful book!

Once again a wonderful book written by an outstanding author!!!! Thank you to Karen Kingsbury for sharing her talent!

Great ending to a three book series.

This three book series was one of the best I have ever read. The story line keeps you so looking forward to what is coming next, that it's hard to put the book down. You feel like you really know the characters. You feel the pain and joy that they experience. What a talent Karen Kingsbury has. I love all of her books I've read.

Another GREAT Karen Kingsbury novel!

A few weeks ago, Zondervan sent me an advance reader's copy of Karen Kingsbury's new novel, Every Now & Then. I'm a huge fan of Karen's writing and love to read, so I couldn't wait to dive into her latest book. I have to say, I was not disappointed. The main character, Alex Brady, lost his father on September 11th, a day that many of us wish we could forget. The reality, however, is that what happened seven years ago still affects many people in our world today. They remain trapped in their pain and grief, leaving them unable to move past the devastating losses they experienced that tragic day. In the book, Alex's mother commented that she didn't only lose a husband that day, she also lost a son. The victims of 9/11 go far beyond those who lost their lives and it's important for the rest of us to remain sensitive to those who are still struggling. I hope this book will find its way into the hands of those needing a gentle nudge towards fully embracing their grief and finding the healing they desperately need and deserve. It's important to note that none of Karen's books are offensive when it comes to faith. Her stories are filled with grace and are sure to be enjoyed by all readers. I would not hesitate to recommend this book to someone who is not a Christian knowing they will not only enjoy the story, but be touched by it as well. While the story and characters are not real, there's a reason why Karen calls her writing ministry Life Changing Fiction(TM). The lessons and healing the characters find in her books are easily applied to our own personal lives. Karen Kingsbury is an incredibly gifted author and her books are sure to be a blessing to those who invest their time and money into reading her well-written novels. I am thoroughly impressed by the author's ability to make her characters come to life. They are so believable, they pull you into the story before you realize what's happened. The only thing I struggled with while reading the book was the amount of detail included in the second chapter. Perhaps it was me, but I found myself on sensory overload trying to process all of the information. I think I would have preferred to have the characters introduced individually, rather than all at once. That said, once I got past Chapter 2, I was unable to put the book down and thoroughly enjoyed reading the rest of the story. I finished the book in less than two days. :-) Need I say more? If you're looking for a good book to cozy down with in front of a blazing fire, or perhaps something to stick in a loved one's stocking this year, I highly recommend Every Now & Then. You won't be disappointed.

Another hit

When I pre-ordered this book I could not wait for it to come in. Now that is has I re-read One Tuesday Morning and Beyond Tuesday Morning(1-2 in series) and now am almost done this one and I can see God working in the life of Alex Brady. Karen is the most wonderful Christian author I have found that makes the stories feel like it could be you. I get lost in her books. Keep up the great work Karen. I love your writting.
