A freebie for my Kindle that I really enjoyed. I think I've liked every book I've read by Diann Mills, so I should probably seek her out more :) This one was very different, a half Ute Indian woman who loses her husband and child to a gang in Colorado in the late 1800's. She becomes a bounty hunter and seeks out those who murdered her family. It's Christian fiction, so some of the plot deals with forgiveness and her rediscovering her faith and dependence on God. I really enjoyed it and would probably give it a 3.5 if the rating system allowed :) I got this book for free from B&N for my Nook. The first few chapters I was already very into this book. It started off about a woman name Sage (duh), who is half Native Indian and half white. It takes place in the late 19th century. She became a bounty hunter due to a circumstance that I rather not reveal. This is basically her story to hunt down the gang that changed her life. As the book go on, it got a little too repetitive (too many same "feelings", "thoughts" that are basically the same, but slightly different wording), a little too preachy (I'm not against Christians at all), and slightly predictable. I like the book to a point. I think the whole story and the thoughts behind it is very interesting, but the writings, not so much. I feel that there's just too much "fluff" with repetitive stuff. I found out much later that the author is a best selling Christian Fiction, and writes adventure/mystery stories with Christianity involved. I didn't find anything bothersome about it. Especially now that I know about the author's writings, it makes sense.The ending conflict/resolution was a little weak. I think it could be stronger. I do recommend this book for quick reading as I did enjoy about a woman bounty hunter. Just don't expect a very powerful book.
What do You think about A Woman Called Sage (2010)?
It was an ok story line and very easy to read. I would recommend it to my friends.
