Kathryn Cushman is known for her emotional laced books. She has taken on the subjects of death, addiction and even reality TV. They have all been interesting peeks into life while woring through the issues. Most of us will not lose a child to a tragic accident and yet in her book A Promise to remember she gives you both sides of issue.
Chasing Hope is Kathryn's newest and the emotion run high once again. Sabrina knew from a very young age God had called to to Olympic gold and to use her fame to reach more for Christ, just like her hero Eric Liddell. When those dreams are dashed because of a health issues she is positive she heard God wrong and that want her hopes and dreams are don't matter to Him.
Brandy is a child with her last chance. There is only one way to stay out of Juvie and that is to join anything that is extra curriculum. She is told the cross country team will give her a try, but she has to also find someone that is willing to train her on the side. This is where these two very different girls meet and their first meeting does not go well.
A story about running , but how it can bring two people together. It is also a story about how we should not judge someone until we know their history. Some times things we think we know are not what they appear.
Happy Reading
