Road Home

ROAD HOME by LEIGH LINCOLN is the poignant story of a homeless woman that will pull at your heart strings. It really made me think - are we not all homeless until we find our home in Christ?
Cindy has been on the road for ten long years seeking freedom from abusive parents and an abusive husband. She has a very low self image and is afraid of trusting anyone, especially God, who she does not believe exists.
As we journey with her we wonder if she is going to accept the truth about God and His love for her, or if she is going to be homeless for ever.
I like the way the author shows that people are more impressed with Christians who walk the walk rather than just talking the talk!
It is a really inspirational and well written book and the story and characters will stay with you a long time.
I was given a free copy of the book by NetGalley from BooksGoSocial. The opinions in this review are completely my own.

When I started this book I couldn't put my phone down! The characters and their words really stick with you way after you've finshed reading it. This book really brings to life the harsh reality we hide away from even though we all know it's there and I admire Leigh Lincoln for doing this.. I feel as though every single person would be able to relate to this book and at one point in their life felt as though they were lost, homeless, homesick, abandoned and even given up hope altogether but this really brings back hope that there's someone out there who will always love and care for you no matter what even if you feel that you've done something so bad that it will be never be forgivern and may even feel worthless. Heres proof that a true christian is more than just words, it's someone who you can just look at and know they walk with God through their actions. I would recomend this book with anyone who may be feeling depressed, feeling unsure or feel as though something in their lives is missing and nothing seems to be able to fill that void. This book helps you see that you must use the cards your given and believe God will help you every step of the way, he has a plan for you and will keep you safe even if you haven't realised yet.

What would you do if you were homeless and depended on charity for all of your needs? Read this story from a homeless girl's point of view. From Arizona to Ohio, she walked, rode in trucks, camped and stayed at homeless shelters to stay alive. She had been married once, to an unfaithful man who had only wanted children, and she was barren. She had a car, lost it and stayed at a college boarding house for one night and a college girl found her pills and booze and OD''d and she ran away. Meet the people she meets and learn of her past-homelessness is real and raw! But a stranger enters her life-see what happens!

Awesome Emotional Journey
This book will take the reader on an emotional journey. We join our heroine relive the story of her homelessness; from an abusive past to a decade of living on the road. Reminiscent of 'The Perfect Stranger' movies, she is befriended by a man who leads her to what she has really been searching for. The story is painful to read until he joyous conclusion. I highly recommend this book. I received this ARC book for free from Net Galley and this is my honest review.

A long and thought provoking read. The cover has an excellent synopsis of the book so I will not attempt any details. Take your time reading it so you can do a little soul searching on the way. This would make an excellent book for discussion for a Christian book club.
I was provided this book as and Advanced Reader Copy and was under no obligation to write a review. The opinions expressed are my own.
Thanks to the author, publisher and NetGalley for allowing me to read this book.
