Street of Angels

by Joe Derkacht

Everyone knows a few sermons can't change the world of the Deep South in the turbulent 1960's, especially when certain preachers on opposite sides of the color line prefer the status quo. But two nearly destitute widows and their very different sons reaching across the street in selfless love just might save their community.

The turbulence of the South during decades of racial tension and the rise of the civil rights movement are the the plot drivers for this novel. The reason to read it are the finely drawn characters reacting, growing, learning, grieving, forgiving, living and dying. Worth the 600+ pages.

A story set in the South that shows that there were a few people willing to go against the race barrier and do the right thing. Kind of a long book but still a good book.

I enjoyed it, but may be went on a little too long. Could of been wrapped up in a 100 or so pages less. If you liked "The Help". You'll like this one.

[Patricia Miller]

the best book I have ever read. Just read it!

[Bill Stoldt]

Not to bad for a Christian Fiction. It was all over the place time wise and jumped ahead at times without much notice to reader. Other then that it was not to shabby.

Very interesting read. Found once I started it, I didn't want to stop.
Have it as a nook "Lend Me" if interested

[Daphne James]

Enjoyed it once it got going. It was a little hard to follow at first. Overall-A good Christian fiction book.

[Breana Copp]

Read over 200 pages and just couldn't get into the book. Gave up!

[Amy]

An OK book. Kinda disjointed. Characters were updated at the end of the book except for a couple of the main characters. It left you wondering as a reader-didn't like it.

I really like this book, I laughed and I cried. I would recommend this book to everyone.
