Really enjoyed this book and finished it in 3 days. It’s a fun christian chick-lit that I could totally relax with and still get some deep stuff out of it. Some favorite passages -
p.250
I am reminded that God has a wonderful plan for our lives, and even when it doesn’t make sense and it feels cruel, He’s still there. He’s weaving it all together in an elaborate and indiscernible pattern. A birth. A death. And so it goes in his time. (This was so beautifully written!)

I was measuring him for the tux before I stopped to consider whether he was the kind of man I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. But then you came in and made me see that it’s not about having a warm body, a Prince Charming, who happens to be the right size for the tux. It’s about someone who smashes everything up and makes you look at it with new eyes. More like Humpty Dumpty than Prince Charming. And I think you are my Humpty Dumpty.
p.285
I guess when everything I thought I wanted was gone, I saw what it was I really needed.
