There’s a little of everything tossed in the mix, so I’d be surprised if you didn’t enjoy them. The whole O’Malley Chronicles series I highly recommend. Readers, if you’d like to get hooked on a fabulous series of books that will keep you turning pages, I suggest you begin reading JENNIFER by Dee Henderson. You’ve made it so easy to share the love of Christ with any non-believer who loves reading. Dee Henderson delivered.ĭee, thanks for following God’s call when He asked you to write the O’Malley series. Such a sweet personality as Jennifer deserved a sweet story. Instead, I rather enjoyed being immersed into Jennifer’s world of hospitals and sick kids. Surprisingly, the lack of suspense and crime-drama qualities (as compared to the other books in the series) was not bothersome to me. As always, when reading an O’Malley book, my emotions were pulled in and I was swept away by fantastic storytelling. Dee’s trademark sense of humor brought a smile to my face in the midst of the toughest cry-my-eyes-out scenes. Reading JENNIFER made me want to read the entire eight book series again (including the prequel and this novella). ![]() Dee Henderson’s The O’Malley Chronicles is one of my favorite series, and I always thought the youngest O’Malley deserved her own book. I’ve been hoping this novella would one day grace my bookshelves. When I found out JENNIFER was in print, “HaPpY dAnCe!” was the first thing that popped into my mind. When life throws her a curve ball, will Jennifer realize she can fully trust Tom AND the God he serves? Or will she face her scary new reality alone? Little does she know, she’s getting to know Tom for some pretty special reasons. So, when surgeon Tom Peterson slips into her life, she’s knocked off guard. This could have been a full-blown novel and I would have loved it even more.Īll in all, I very much enjoyed this short novella, and greatly look forward to reading more by this talented author! Highly recommended!Ĭontent to serve her “kids” in her pediatric practice, Jennifer O’Malley is unprepared for her life to change. While very short, the pacing of this story was slow, peaceful, meandering. Henderson brings up some tough issues on God's sovereignty, and handles them with great tact, making things clear for the unbeliever, and strengthening the faith of the believer. Jennifer's salvation was incredibly realistic and beautiful, and actually had me tearing up. ![]() I loved Jennifer's sweet servant's heart for others, and Tom's respect and support of her. I fell in love with these amazing characters from the very start. Tom and Jennifer's relationship is so pure, so sweet, and so beautiful. Henderson nails that perfectly in "Jennifer". (*rolls eyes*) It's built on a solid friendship and a deep mutual respect and reverence for the other person - for their heart, their soul, their personality, not how cute they are. ![]() **Prepare yourselves for a minor rant on romances **Ī good romantic relationship is not built on the "feels", the physical aspect - a tingling feeling when he touches your arm, constantly wanting to kiss, swooning over his blue eyes, getting lightheaded when you smell his aftershave. ![]()
