This was my first book by Andy Andrews. I was looking forward to enjoying it. Honestly, this is a good book. Lots of good principles. I just didn't think it was right for my tastes. I can say that Andrews does have an original idea with this book & including significant historical people (President Truman, Colonel Chamberlain, archangel Gabriel,Joan of Arc, Winston Churchill,etc.) will definitely draw lots of readers to it. I had to push myself to read it quickly for fear i would not finish it. I really do wish I had liked it better. I love learning about historical figures, I guess I was just not drawn in to them in this way. However, I'm sure others will love this book.

Sweet Sanctuary is about a single mother, Wren, who is trying to do the right things for her son, Charlie. After everything she went through as a child, she just wants to make sure her son doesn't have to as well. That is until an unexpected birthday request from her grandmother sends her world upside down and she is filled with memories she would rather not think about. This story provided me with a mix of emotions as Wren had to face her family and her fears, but came to know the truth. God is always with us.
