All Manner of Things by Susie Finkbeiner (Review)




My Review




Some book are meant to be read and you think nothing more of them, not so with this one. You will savor it and remember it for a long time. A emotional coming of age story set in the 1960's. The Jacobson's could be your own family or your close neighbor friend's. You will feel privileged to get to know them through the pages of this book, celebrate their happy times with them and want to comfort them through their sadness. A true keeper, this book will keep your attention from first page flip through the closing of the back cover.

Published June 4th 2019 by Fleming H. Revell Company . I was given a complimentary copy of this book. Thank you. All opinions expressed are my own.






GoodReads Summary



When Annie Jacobson's brother Mike enlists as a medic in the Army in 1967, he hands her a piece of paper with the address of their long-estranged father. If anything should happen to him in Vietnam, Mike says, Annie must let their father know.

In Mike's absence, their father returns to face tragedy at home, adding an extra measure of complication to an already tense time. As they work toward healing and pray fervently for Mike's safety overseas, letter by letter the Jacobsons must find a way to pull together as a family, regardless of past hurts. In the tumult of this time, Annie and her family grapple with the tension of holding both hope and grief in the same hand, even as they learn to turn to the One who binds the wounds of the brokenhearted.

Author Susie Finkbeiner invites you into the Jacobson family's home and hearts during a time in which the chaos of the outside world touched their small community in ways they never imagined.
