What Reviewers are Saying About The Mosaic Collection Anthologies:
Each is a picture of God’s grace working in the hearts of hurting people through individual writing styles.
Each author has her own voice, yet somehow they all fit perfectly together.
The stories are just the right length to relax with at the end of a long day.
I love these Mosaic author anthologies. These are stories about real people with real problems and emotions.
Such beautifully written, inspirational short stories with themes of grace, forgiveness, love, and peace.
Uplifting stories of ordinary people dealing with their faith and life’s struggles.
Thank you to all the Mosaic Collection authors for giving us more lovely stories to remind us that we will never be alone as God is always with us.
Each of these faith-based fiction stories in Sounds Like a Plan is uniquely and beautifully written with believable characters sustained by the amazing grace of God. Memorable, touching, inspiring, and a true reading pleasure. May you be blessed by this collection.
My thoughts: I enjoyed this collection of novellas! I have a love/hate relationship with novella collections, since I often feel like it's hard to get a lot of character development in such a short story. That was not the case with this collection! Each of the authors did a fantastic job of writing stories that pointed to God being in control of the timing of things in our lives. I also enjoyed the common thread of a bookstore being the center of each story. I highly recommend picking up this book, along with the other Mosaic stories!
I received this book from Just Read. This is my honest review.
