Customer Reviews

Heavenly Daze is "Father Tim "......

I found this series of books by Lori Copeland to be so much fun and entertaining, that I could hardly wait to read them all. They remind me so much of the small town love and fun of Jan Karon's "Mitford" series of books. A must read!!!!

I loved this book!

This series has really just grown on me. I love these characters and their small town island charm. I loved reading about Annie and Dr. Marc....totally wasn't even expecting their romance so was kind of surprised but then I just loved reading about them. I can't wait to read about their "courtship" in then next book. I also thought Edith's struggle with her weight was what a lot of women end up doing. The way the authors dealt with that issue was very well done. We have to trust God in every area of our life...including our appetite. I started rereading certain parts of the book right away....excellent book!

I love these books!

I just received my copy of Hearts at Home late yesterday in the mail, began it last night and just finished it already (boo hoo hoo!)! I have thoroughly enjoyed this series of stories about Heavenly Daze. I cannot quite explain it, but when I read these books, I felt calm and relaxed, which is something I don't feel often. Often, I am anxious and worried, but these stories have an overwhelming power of relaxation and healing over me. Simply put, they make me smile and sometimes choke up and sometimes I laugh out loud!

Ready for another one!

I just finshed Hearts at Home and have just one question: WHEN WILL THE NEXT BOOK BE READY?! I can't wait for it. I am really beginning to wonder if the authors have a spy camera in my house. Edith's dieting sounds just like mine! I love seeing Dr. Marc and Annie together. Mourned the loss of Olympia and cried while I read about the wedding.

What a hoot!

I have enjoyed each book in the Heavenly Daze series, but I absolutely howled at Edith's weight loss dilemma. There is a minute amount of women on earth who do NOT fight the battle of the bulge, but like most of us, there are 5 to 10 pounds now and then that challenge us to yield to self-control. And that challenge can become absolutely hysterical in hindsight. I maintain God has a flat forehead from smacking it so many times over the many ways we mortals try our "quick fixes". You have us on the edge of our seats eagerly anticipating the next month in the lives of these blessedly imperfect people. The message of God's intimate participation in each person's life comes across so beautifully in this series without being "preachy", and we your readers take great delight in that. The people in this series feel like "kin", like I personally know them and have known them all my life.
