The Message on the Quilt by Stephanie Grace Whitson ~ Review

Lucie's Review:

Emilie Jane Rhodes has a passion for writing and want to be a reporter at her father's newspaper, but he keeps brushing her off giving her small gossip and society columns and not real news, but when he gives her job to another woman Emilie is even more determined to be  a real reporter. Emilie convinces her father to let her interview the speakers at the 1890 Chautauqua series, and meets the man known as The Man of Many Voices, Noah Shaw, who wants answers.

So many characters and so much going on! It took me awhile to figure out what was going one because of the all the threads and storylines that the book followed, but I loved how it came together in a way that made it so that I couldn't have imagined it otherwise.

While this book does say that it is the third in a series, the characters in this book are of no relation to the previous characters of the previous books, the only connection being that all of the women's live were impacted in a big way by a quilt and the things that transpired around them.

Overall this was a well written historical romance with so many characters and so much going on, yet I didn't get confused and all of it came together into an intriguing tale. The characters were well developed, even though, as I said before there were a lot of them! I loved how it all came together, this book was very satisfying, with lessons of faith woven into the fibers of the story. I would highly recommend this book!
