4.0 out of 5 stars Will she end up with hymn?, April 7 2012

Chris (Ottawa, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Shadows At The Window (Mass Market Paperback)
I don't know if there were any shadows at windows in this book, but it was a quick, worthwhile tale. To my delight, this Christian story was light on the romance and somewhat heavy with the dark stuff. And for most of the reading, I wasn't sure who the culprit was, so credit to Linda Hall.

This review is from: Shadows At The Window (Mass Market Paperback)
Linda Hall managed to stump me yet again. I love how every time I think I've figured it out, she throws me for a loop.

Although there were a few elements of the story that I thought came across as slightly far-fetched, it wasn't much different from some of those insane CSI episodes I've watched in the past... somehow Hall makes it work out.

As usual, what I love most is Linda's knack for character development. Even when the story gets a bit wild, the characters remain believable and almost tangible.

Looking forward to the next one, Linda!

P.S. Congrats on your amazon.ca rankings for this book! Not surprised... but wow! :)

3.0 out of 5 stars Good read but not the author's best..., Mar 1 2009
By Nikki S. - Published on Amazon.com
Typical Love Inspired book....not Hall's best writing, but a quick, easy read with a decent plot. Rather predictable ending, to the point where you wonder why the main character didn't figure out at least part of it early on.

5.0 out of 5 stars In Shadows at the Window, Linda Hall has done it again - wrapped interesting, real, and flawed characters with a compelling myst, Aug 5 2008
By Susan Sleeman "Host of The Christian Suspense... - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Shadows At The Window (Mass Market Paperback)
When Shadows at the Window opens, Lilly Johnson seems to have it all. She's content in her job at a music store, enjoys teaching music lessons, is at home singing in the worship band at church, and is thrilled over a pending engagement to youth minister, Greg Whitten. Yes, everything in her current world is swimming along nicely. It's Lilly's past that threatens to pull her under and drown out her present.

Lilly is horribly ashamed of the things she's done in the past and was happy to leave that life behind. A life she thought would remain hidden. But Lilly is in for a shocking surprise as her past rises up and threatens to smother the good with a blanket of ugliness. Not only smother Lilly, but take Greg down with her.

Greg is clueless about Lilly's secrets and simply wants to marry her. When emails begin arriving with incriminating pictures of Lilly, her world collapses. She must find out who is sending these emails and discover what they hope to gain from exposing her. And if it is possible, reclaim the world she lived in before it was rocked to the core.

Shadows at the Window is an aptly titled story of past failures and future consequences. The subject of this story could be dark and heavy but Hall does a wonderful job of not letting that happen. She reminds us that our past is our past and once we accept Jesus as our savior, we are new creatures in Christ and the past cannot harm us. That no matter what we've done, we have a fresh beginning with God.

I've always thought one of Hall's many writing strengths lies in her characters. She pens real people with struggles you and I might find in life. She tosses these characters into mysteries so compelling that you want to keep reading until the very end. Shadows at the Windows is no exception to this and is a race to the end read. I urge you to buy your copy today so you too can see why Linda Hall is and remains one of my favorite authors.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another 5-Star Review, Nov 22 2009
By In My Opinion... - Published on Amazon.com

Another 5 Star book by Linda Hall.

Someone is trying to destroy Lilly or so it seems. There really isn't a part where you might be at a good point to put the book down.

With the types and amount of work being done to the church, floors being left gaping open without more than the yellow warning tape across the openings and stairways being totally gone, and lights that would no longer work, while the church is still occupied, is not believable. At the start of the book, with Lilly's hands and arms apparently full, she shoulders open the church door to find yellow warning tape marking a gaping hole in the floor. No mention of danger or warning on the door. None, at least that was apparent to her. Being so occupied, she could easily have landed in that hole. In reality, the door should have been locked and the church-goers would have known in advance to use another entrance.

In this book, we are reminded how the old has passed away and all things become new in Christ. Lilly is fortunate she found people who are familiar with that and for whom they are not words only. She found God's loving acceptance of her through a stranger's concern and kindness when she needed it most.
