5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely charming!, September 18, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Papa's Wife (Library Binding)
This captivating, wholesome story is a refreshing respite from our often hectic, sometimes violent existence in the late 20th century. Pontus and Maria are completely devoted to each other and their family. They don't merely "put up" with each other's differences. Those differences actually serve to endear them to one another. The various situations the family gets into made me laugh and the descriptions of Swedish food and customs was enchanting. I loved this book!

4.0 out of 5 stars Religious exploration, January 16, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Papa's Wife (Library Binding)
I found this book to not be about a young woman getting her man and having children. It's a beautiful depiction of a simple life that reminds us to take a step back from all of our ambition and things that we find important. It's a testemant to Mama's faith. She focused on what was important to her in life, which is what we all should do. She shows us how the jobs like mother and wife, which are often thought lightly of in the current time and play second fiddle to professions, are the most important of them all. Mama makes me want to be a better person.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rave, January 19, 2000
This review is from: Papa's Wife (Library Binding)
I read this book the first time when I was 12. I reread it at 32, married, with 3 children. It stopped me from whining, reminded me of how I used to view the world, and made me feel Comforted. Maria reminds us all how truly thrilling life can be as a woman.
