Every once in a while a story is told that, at least for a moment, changes the way you look at life. Finding Life is that story. It is an ageless and timeless tale of a glorious life destroyed by an unforgivable mistake, and the small miracles that turn the impossible into hope... After buying into the ways of the world, Chance Gordon commits an unspeakable sin - one that destroys the souls of himself and the love of his life. Buried deep in a sinking depression that isolates him from the world, it takes the small miracles of a faithful Grandfather, a desperate friend, and an innocent child to bring hope and an impossible journey to find life in the ashes.
The story is one of childhood friendship, true love, life mistakes and forgiveness. It was a quick read and at times I found the writing enjoyable and at other times I found it drab. The ending wraps up quickly and maybe a little too “perfect” but all the “secrets” and true meaning behind them are revealed.
The setting in NC - Chapel Hill and Morehead City area which I loved.
since this is based on the area i live, and written by someone i KNOW, i may be a tad biased. but i laughed, i cried, and i really enjoyed this book :)
