Interrupted: A Life Beyond Words (2012) - Plot & Excerpts
I not only enjoyed Interrupted: A Life Beyond Words but my 14 year old daughter loved it as well. I have passed it on to the local school to add to their books as I think other students would enjoy and learn from reading this book. Would like to read more from Rachel Coker. 4 stars from me!My rating system is as follows:5 stars - Excellent, Worth Every Penny, Made It Into My Personal Library!4 stars - Great book, but not a classic. 3 stars - Good overall, generally well written.2 stars - Would not recommend based on personal criteria.1 star - Difficult to read, hard to finish, or didn't finish. Wouldn't recommend purchasing or reading.In accordance with the FTC Guidelines for blogging and endorsements, you should assume that every book I review was provided to me by the publisher, media group or the author for free and no financial payments were received, unless specified otherwise. I won this book on a goodreads first read giveaway.For about the first three quarters of the book, I really, really enjoyed it. Although it was a little cheesy, I enjoyed the premise and characters. I wasn't aware that this was a Christian book (my fault), and it really isn't one until closer to the end. I was shocked by how quickly the author started quoting scripture and praising God. I feel that it was quite over the top, to the point that I felt slightly uncomfortable (even though I am a Christian). That being said, I skimmed over the scripture sections a little bit. For the last quarter of the book, I found it quite unrealistic and sappy. The ending was rushed, changing her heart from "I don't love you" to "let's get married," and from her being anti-religion to a devout Christian within a matter of a few pages. All in all, I really enjoyed the first portion of the book, but I felt the ending was too overdone.
