Rating-
Because the main part of this book
is Elizabeth wanting a child but not being able to conceive it’s not the most
relatable for teens. (Though, nothing about what it takes to conceive is said;
very clean.) But, when you fall in love with a character you want to know what
happens to said character. “When Breaks
the Dawn” is very clean for teens and fans of the previous books will enjoy
it. {I’d like to applaud the author once more for being so clean! Like I said,
main part of this story is Elizabeth wanting to conceive, but there was no
sexual hints or mentions at all! More authors need to write like Janette Oke.}
See y’all on Monday with a new
review!
*BFCG may (Read the review to see) recommend this book by this author. It does not mean I recommend all the books by this author.
