5.0 out of 5 stars One of The Best Of Janette Oke's So Far, January 14, 2000

This review is from: A Bride for Donnigan (Women of the West #7) (Paperback)

I would like to tell anyone who is thinking about getting their first book by Janette Oke to get this one. It not only expresses how to find God, get closer to Him & live as a christian but is also a history lesson because it talks about life in the pioneer days. This book is a MUST READ!

1.0 out of 5 stars Light Fluff with Almost no Redeeming Qualities, March 1, 2001

This review is from: A Bride for Donnigan (Women of the West #7) (Paperback)

I was disappointed with this book from Janette Oke. Her lack-luster writing style makes me wonder if perhaps she just scribbled this off on the weekend to meet a deadline, which is really too bad because the plot idea is excellent, but it could have been done oh, so much better! Her characters were flat, and the way she jumped over long periods of time, I thought perhaps my book was missing pages. It wasn't. If anyone is looking for a Christian romance that has depth and endearing, Christian characters, I strongly recommend Lori Wick- especially her book 'The Princess'. Maybe next time, Ms. Oke.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome, thats about it, November 18, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: A Bride for Donnigan (Women of the West #7) (Paperback)

I think that this book is awesome. I had to read it for school, so i thought oh great another boring book....one where i have to try to keep my eyes open. But, when i started to readd it...it kept my interest and i kept wanting to read it more and more. It is exciting and you never know what is going to happen next. It was easy to understand. Best of all when I took my test on it ...i got 100%! I was wicked happy!
