Women Bible Cafe's Fiction Book of the Month, Stacy Hawkins Adams' Christian novel The Someday List introduces the reader to the Jubilant Soul Series and main character Rachelle Covington who is struggling with her role within her own world.
When her husband goes on a mission trip to Uganda and her children travel to spend a month with the grandparents, Rachelle finds herself with the time to visit a dying friend, who inspires Rachelle as she wants to model a list of completed list of to-do's before I die.
Set in Texas, this novel challenges the reader to consider his/her views on drinking and driving when Rachelle's aunt is involved in an accident in which a young child is hurt. Rachelle finds herself giving more than she is receiving, and, as she does, she realizes that her relationship with God is lacking, the same conclusion that her husband is discovering on his mission trip, a trip he originally took for positive impact it would have on his career.
Characters are developed and relationships grow as Rachelle faces a flame from the past and confronts who she is and the new role she will now play in the own drama of her life. Scene by scene, act by act, decisions are made and growth occurs.
A good read, a quick read, this Christian fiction was enjoyable and inspiring.
Happy reading!
