Forbidden Falls Book Review

Forbidden Falls (Virgin River Novels) by Robyn Carr was the next book in the series came into the library at the same time as the previous one and it was begging me to read it so I put off the next book on my list yet again for the third book in the row!  I can't believe that I am having so much trouble getting back to the Spenser series by Robert Parker since I love them but with one trip to the library, I brought home so many books that I know I have enough to keep me busy for a long time but I am still reserving books at the library with more coming in every day.  I am going to try to stop the reserving process until I get caught up with the pile that I already have at the house but I can't promise anything.  The great thing is that this books usually only take a day or two to read and then I can try to get back to the other book that I was supposed to pick up :)

This book was about the new pastor, Noah, coming in to town and remodeling the old church.  He started doing a lot of the things himself and didn't get a lot accomplished.  He decided to hire an assistant who would help set up the place and then help him after the church was up and running.  He interviewed three applicants and one was too old and frail to help with the work, the second was too mean and the third was a young lady who was dressed too provocatively.  He decided that he would try his search again until he went into Jack's for dinner and she was there crying and he got the rest of her story.  Ellie became the new assistant and helped transform the church and helped Noah heal from the loss of his wife.  The town grew to love Ellie and she grew to need them.  I don't want to spoil things but read the book and you will see how great all of the relationships grow in this book.

As always, Robyn Carr doesn't disappoint!  It was a heartfelt book that had me flipping through the pages.  I really need to find something else to get me to stop reading because all of the other chores are going by the wayside while I sit down to read.  I can't believe how many books I have read already this month and it is only half over.  I might be in trouble trying to get this reading under control.  I am really not sure how I passed up books all these years while I was too busy working but I know that I am making up for it now!!  Please do me a favor and pick up a book, even one a month, and I know that you will appreciate how much I love being back to reading!!!
