Cherished - Kim Cash Tate

This true life story and song is what got to me more than the book did.  I knew nothing of this story before reading the book, and after doing an internet search, came across this interview.  This 8 minute clip is definately worth viewing, even if you don't read the book!

This book was a slower read for me, especially in the beginning.  Over the course of a month or longer, I finally made my way through, and ended up being happy with the ending.

I did enjoy the story of Kelli, her love of songwriting, and using that gift to work through some things in her past.  I wasn't sure where her relationship with Brian was headed, and there were many bumps along the way.  At times it seemed that Brian and Kelly would only reconnect through their family and friends, but the Lord had other things in mind for them.

The other storyline that got my attention, was that of Heather.  Heather always seemed to be making bad choices, from a one-night stand with a Christian musician, to an affair with a married man.  Just as she comes to the end of her rope, God is their to catch her, if only she will let Him.
