5.0 Star Review from Literary Titan
July 27, 2021
The characters and voices (of "Seventy Times Seven") were written so beautifully. Moore created a novel bursting with relatable characters and prudent life lessons. This book contains mature content, but it is delivered in a thoughtful way that sheds light on the dark topics while still making it easy to process. Seventy Times Seven is a poignant romance novel that will appeal to anyone looking for an emotional Christian fiction story.
Seventy Times Seven is a story about courage and the often unseen hand of God moving in the lives of human beings in the midst of difficulty and confusion.
It is a story of desperate courage:
- Courage to escape from abuse,
- Courage to forgive both abuse and betrayal,
- Courage to face the complexity and confusion of being an immigrant without legal standing in a strange country,
- Courage to trust God’s love, and
- Courage to love again after abuse, betrayal, and broken relationships.
