After reading C.J. Darlington’s first novel I can say that she is definitely on my list of ‘author’s I’ll read more of.’ It’s no wonder that her book, Thicker Than Blood, won the Christian Writers Guild’s Operation First Novel contest. The writing is strong, the characters are quirky and keep you reading just to see what they’ll do next. The premise is unique and interesting as well – the main character, Christy Williams, works in bookstore and wants to become an antiquarian book buyer.
But, when a stolen Hemingway first edition is found in her possession things go downhill quickly. Christy finds herself running from her life, her scary ex-boyfriend and God. She’s sure that things can never be right again…..
It’s a great read!
