Thought-provoking story of transformation

Having read several of Rubart’s books I was looking forward to reading this new one and I was not disappointed. With a blend of the speculative and reality, The Pages of Her Life by James L. Rubart is a thought-provoking and compelling story. A soul-searching story of a transformative journey. A journey to knowing one’s worth regardless of what others think or convey. A journey to understanding God’s work in one’s life. When Allison, a young architect, finds herself facing seemingly insurmountable circumstances she is given a journal, not just an ordinary journal though, but one that appears to be ancient with a gorgeous leather cover and thick creamy white pages, one that is magical…or is it magic? Why was she chosen? What does it mean for her to be given the journal? Will it change her life as the previous owner she’d overheard saying that it had changed his? The author does a great job of portraying timeless emotions and struggles and threading them with spiritual truths to bring a tension-filled story, one with several twists to the plot keeping the reader wondering how things are going to turn out for Allison and her family. I especially liked the message the author brings in regards to the two worlds we live in…the outward world of circumstances, friendships, and words spoken to us and the world of words that we speak to ourselves. We often allow too much of the outside world to inform and influence our inward world. As is usual with this author’s book, it is a story that will not easily be forgotten, one to mull over and reflect on for some time to come. I received a complimentary copy of this book via CelebrateLit. A favorable review was not required and opinions are my own. This review is part of a CelebrateLit blog tour.
