I wouldn't even give this a one if possible, but I have to express what a horrible book this is. I honestly can't remember when I was so angry after reading a book. I sincerely pray that NO non-christian would ever pick up this book and read it, as I am afraid they would be turned off to Christianity.  The book read more of a judgmental sermon than a story.George was a pitiful excuse of a man and Christian example. He was borderline emotionally abusive, not a good father, nor was he honest which was his big issue with Millie.  I see others have been upset with his character also, but no one pointed out that he was also dishonest.  Let's go back to the scene, where he becomes angry with Millie for not paying attention to the sermon.  He asks her a question about her thoughts on something the pastor said.  After she gives her insight, he's like, ha caught you, the pastor didn't talk about that point. He purposefully asked her a question he knew she wouldn't be able to answer correctly and misled her.  For someone SO hung up on honesty, that sure seemed dishonest to me.  The whole book was just ridiculous with it's subservient message and totally did the Christian faith wrong in it's husband/wife doctrine.And the end---so completely unrealistic. There was no indication of Millie falling in love with her husband and then BAM, she's madly in love with him and they want more kids.  For the life of me, I don't see any reason why she would love that horrible man.There is an abundance of good, quality Christian fiction out there that is written much better than this elementary style with more uplifting messages.  I would not recommend wasting your time on this author or book, even if it is free.
