Every Christian Woman Should Read!
Rating:
5 / 5
I have read three of Lynn Austin's book and thus far, this is my favorite. She has weaved together so many different characters into one story and knows who she's writing about intimately. She is an excellent author in that she tells a story with such truth, timeliness and emotion. Your heart will be able to relate to so much in this book. A must read!
Wonderful! I loved it!

I have never read a book that has made me think so deaply! I have never read a Lynn Austin book before, this is the first. I started it and I just couldn't put it down. I finished it about three days ago and I still can't seem to get it out of my mind. The people became so real to me, as if they were part of my family. I continue to feel the heartache and love for them. I keep having to remind myself that they are just fictional characters because they have become so real to me! I loved this book and would recommend it to anyone!!
Not typical Christian fiction

5 / 5
Eve's Daughters chronicles the lives of four women over a span of 100 years, beginning in Germany in the late 1800s as a husband and wife immigrate to the U.S. Each woman in this novel as a powerful story, and each life reflects the generation before, yet all women are bound by a mysterious curse (hence the title). I have never read anything written by Lynn Austin before this novel, but this book was wonderful. From the moment I began the prologue, I knew I would like this book. All four women chronicled in the chapters face similar things that every woman encounters. Austin does not candy-coat life either or preach at the reader, like so many other Christian writers do. Her characters live realistic lives with ups and downs, laughter and tragedy, just like we all do. I was pleased to see that. I loved these characters, and I did not want the book to end. I look forward to reading more novels by Lynn Austin.
