Room for Hope Book Review

                                                                                                                                                   Room for Hope by Kim Vogel Sawyer

                I was going back and forth whether to get this book or not. I was happy to receive a review copy and was excited to start reading it. I read the summary and it definitely intrigued me. I have never read a book with this kind of plot, so I was excited about it.
                This book jumps you right into the action. Since I read the back of the book I knew what was going to happen. But everything you found out from the back pretty much happened in the first chapter. I was not expecting it to jump right in. I almost would have liked the first chapter to be a sort of background of Neva and her husband. I would have liked to see their relationship and how they interacted with each other. But instead, we never get to meet Warren. Knowing how this story pans out, I would have liked to meet him at least once in the book. A flashback would have been nice, maybe the early years of Neva and Warren’s marriage.
                The other thing I really didn’t like is the ending. It felt like it was a little rushed and it just didn’t feel right. An epilogue would have been great. The other thing that I wish she included was a reason why her husband married another woman and had a whole other separate life. It would have been great if he left behind some kind of note explaining why he did this. I just left me constantly wondering and I was waiting for it to be explained more. I was a little disappointed when it didn’t happen.
                With all that said, I still greatly enjoyed this book. The plot was great and it kept my attention throughout.  Now if you’re looking for a highly romantic story, this is not it. Evening though it has a small amount, I still wouldn’t classify it as a romance. But it was a great book and I really liked it.

I received this book from Blogging for Books for this review.
