I'm with you on all the things 100%. I'm a huge fan of books that feature religion when it's done in a meaningful, non-preachy way, and I think Parker's struggles with God were really relatable.<br /><br />And Corndog - I loved him. I just did. I loved the way he interacted with Parker and how their relationship grew and changed throughout the course of the story.<br /><br />I haven't read the third book in this series yet, but I can't wait to see your review when you get to it! It might just give me the kick in the butt I need :)<br /><br /><a href="http://hobbitsies.net/" rel="nofollow">Tara @ Hobbitsies</a>Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13664347375094318096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5335649676143335614.post-50288588153647915852013-08-12T15:52:24.148-04:002013-08-12T15:52:24.148-04:00I'm so glad you liked this one!!

I love how Kenneally's heroines always have a creative outlet to get them through whatever problem they are having: Jordan's diary/journal, Parker's letters, and in the next book, These Things I Can't Forget, Kate's drawing. <br /><br />Of all three heroines Parker is the one I relate to the most, so Stealing Parker holds a special place in my heart. And if you love her and Will then you will really enjoy reading These Things I Can't Forget because they have a a pretty substantial role in it:) <br /><br />I'm such a fan of Kenneally's writing--I think she is just so authentic and real--she's definitely one of my fave contemporary authors writing today. Great review, Alexa!

No, in all honesty, I loved it. I may have not agreed with Jordan's every action, but she grew on me as a main character who makes mistakes, but learns and fixes them. I hear that Stealing Parker is as religious as it gets. I'm not religious, so it may have put me off a bit since I have a bad record with religious books. I respect everyone who believe in god nonetheless though. I really like how Parker seems to grow throughout this novel and I'm glad this touched you so much. I agree, we all question ourselves and it's a struggle we must crawl out of by ourselves by asking the right questions and testing ourselves. I can't wait to read it since this pretty is sitting on my shelf as we speak:) Hopefully soon:) Thanks for your lovely thoughts, Alexa!Siirihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18265532869057616598noreply@blogger.com
