I don't know if I've ever read a Christian book entirely about the process of waiting before--but that seems funny in retrospect, since that encompasses a large part of life. We're all nearly always waiting for *something*, aren't we? We've never "arrived" (and if we have, we're probably dissatisfied. I think of one of the men who walked on the moon, who later suffered from depression. Where do you go from there?)

The author writes in generalities, but I think that works, and I'm almost glad for her sake that she doesn't over-share (though it was clear enough what she was waiting for as the story unfolded). I felt like she was a girlfriend whom I could identify with and root for.
