A review by fklwmn
The Atonement Child by Francine Rivers
1.0
I rarely take the time to write reviews. I also rarely leave one star ratings. After this book came highly recommended, I wanted to leave a note about why I disliked it so much.
I love a good, Christian novel. I thought the premise of the book could be written in a thoughtful and heart-wrenching way. I was severely disappointed. This is not a novel. It is nothing more than a piece of pro-life propaganda. This subject matter could have been handled so well and turned into a thought-provoking work, but instead it is handled with kid-gloves and really just a vessel for the author’s opinions on not only abortion, but also birth control.
