An enjoyable read. The emotions of both Sierra and Alex were well described so you empathised with both characters through the break up of their marriage. The story of Mary Kathryn through her diary was also interesting and well told. Both stories are tied together at the end as both women find God. ( )

It's a great book. I enjoy reading Francine River's books. I have not been disappointed yet with any of her books. ( )

this is my best francine book.

A very uplifting novel told by a divorcee' coming to terms with her ex, and to god. Two stories - one of a relative making her way into the plantations, and that of a modern day woman going through a separation, the scarlet thread is a very religously uplifting novel, it will keep you reading from page to page. I loved this book and I finished it within a few days. The novel is a quick read, easy to understand and relate to whether or not you are going through spouse problems.

I enjoyed this book which was almost like two books in one with parts of the diary of Sierra's ancestor Mary included at the end of most of the chapters. It was neat to see how their lives were so different yet somehow similar in coming to faith in Jesus. ( )
