Celia Murray is one of the few characters from Grace Livingston Hill I've read who actually has doubts about her faith and questions her need to help people, because of this she's more realistic than some of the other ladies in some of her books. She has bad days just like the rest of us and doubts her ability to behave as God would want her to.It's nice to read about someone who has some of the same faults that I do. I liked the characters in this book, the other people in the boarding house and how, with the encouragement and guidance of her Aunt Hannah, they are able to do some of the missionary work that Aunt Hannah originally wanted to dedicate her life to.This was a quick read, very interesting and well written, there were a few typos that required thought because they were actual words. For the price they weren't a problem.Ms. Hill used the plot of girls who worked in deparmtne stores in a lot of her books, although there are several this was a good story about regular people, no one was rich and the all worked for a living. I highly recommend this book for readers who like Ms. Hill.
