Ain't No Valley: A Novel

by Sharon Ewell Foster

Anthony, a banking executive, and Naomi, a dentist, are two people who have trusted their jobs and status to make them whole--until they are suddenly without either. Against the backdrop of San Francisco and plans for a California wedding for Mary and Moor (from Ain't No Mountain), Ain't No Valley is the story of two people in crisis, learning to glean the very best from life; two people who have squandered their God-given gifts on a world that has used them up, and who now search to find their way home.

"Ain't no valley so low that God ain't there... The bright light might be on the mountaintops, but God hovers over the valleys"

I wanted to read something light to help me get through the exhausting days of studying, and this novel has done its work perfectly. It's light to read, yet very rich with messages and inspiration.
The main characters were lovable and realistic, you can find a trait of yourself easily in any or each one of them. The only problem I faced was with the secondary characters, they were many and alike that I needed some time to stop confusing them with each other.

In the beginning I thought this was going to be really light reading. But as you progress and the characters develop what you get is a lesson on how to be a better person and how to contribute to society in a positive way. Most of the characters are black. The book is written from a black perspective. Inspirational but not in you face.

Another book by Sharon Ewell Foster, who also writes for Guideposts. Continuing on the story of Ain't No Mountain, and the life lessons they learn on the way to Mary and Moor's wedding. Spiritual lessons are taught with humor.

I am enjoying it. I had to return it to the library but I hope to pick it back up and finish it soon!

Great life lessons. However, book was a little hard to keep up with as far as tying in the characters.
