Delia Parr never fails to write a heartwarming tale with merit. Her deft hand has a light touch and a powerful message. I sighed on reading the bit of the review that was disappointed by the confirmation of the roles of women. Who doesn't need confirmation now and then? I loved the characters and enjoyed the story very much!

I just finished reading Abide With Me, and really enjoyed it. I am looking forward to reading Day by Day.

I had never even heard of Delia Parr until last year when I read one of her books--Day by Day. Turns out that Day by Day is book 2 of her Home Ties Trilogy, and I had no clue I was reading the series out of order....which is not a bad thing since each book can stand on it's own. While I was not at all impressed with Day by Day (very depressing and slow-moving story), Abide with Me was just right. There are some pretty hefty issues brought up, but I didn't have that same depressed feeling with this one as I did with Day by Day. Overall, Abide with Me was a wonderful, light read, and as soon as I can find a copy, I plan to finish out the series and read book 3, Carry the Light.

Sort of depressing in the beginning and hard to get into. Not her best book.
