Genre: Fiction

Series: Peggy books #6

Age recommendation: 12-16

Summary: A junior in high school Peggy thinks she’s ready to start dating. The only problem? She’s not sure if the guy she likes feels the same way about her. Can Peggy learn to leave her heart in God’s hands?

My thoughts: I love this series so much. What I like about it is that it’s so relatable. Even though it’s a pretty old book, I can totally relate with Peggy’s character: what she does and how she feels. She wants and tries to be a good Christian, but she is constantly failing. She recognizes that failure, and wants to do better but always falls short. I find that so realistic – it’s like what Paul says in Romans 7:15 “For what I will to do, that I do not practice; but what I hate, that I do.”
Peggy annoyed me with all her complaining about not having a boyfriend. As I’ve probably mentioned in some of my reviews of other books, I can’t really relate to that kind of stuff and I find the whining annoying.
Despite the whining, I really enjoyed the book and can’t wait to read the rest of the series!

My personal rating: 4/5 stars.

This one touches on the important topic of surrendering your most heartfelt desires to God. We also see into the hardened heart of Peggy's mother and gain some understanding of her bitterness.
