bookishmadness's review against another edition

Ireland? Yes! Heart-throb actor as love interest? Yes! Mean and bossy main character? No. Major God tones? Probably not. The blurb of this book really did pull me in! The names are gorgeous, and setting is lovely too. But this book just didn't do it for me.
I am not religious, BUT I do not ever judge. I quite happily read books about Angels and Demons, and religion. This book seemed like Jenny B. Jones was trying to suck teenagers in and give them a lesson on God. I don't mean to be rude, and I apologise if I offend, but that is the way this book came across.
If your a fan of contemporary fiction, then give this one a go, you just might like it :)

There you’ll find me by Jenny B Jones
……….
This book took my breathe away :) It is ya contemporary that deals with a lot of important topics such as mental health, anger, forgiveness, and eating disorders . Jenny b Jones illustrates Finley so relatable especially as she is dealing with emotional turmoil. This book taught me the importance of trust God even through the happy times and especially though the most difficult times! Overall I loved this book! Bennet melted my heart so much ;)

This was my first "Christian Fiction" book. And I loved it! Of course, it helped that it was set in Ireland. Jones did a wonderful job capturing the essence of the Irish, carrying me to the sites I've seen and hold dear in my heart, creating in dialogue the accent of the locals, and very gently inserting faith.

It was hard for me to get into at first. But by about page 100 I was fully in it. I love their sassy humor with each other. It totally makes the book for me. Great great read! Now to watch the movie!!

The book was good and it told a beautiful story. I loved that we followed through her in her journey to find god again. However it wasn’t one of my favorite books that follow that journey. Personally it felt like the reading was just hopping from one event to the next and then to the next.
