Being Known

After her mom passed away, Jennalyn was in the midst of moving, having a baby, and helping her husband work toward his dream job. At the time, she thought she processed the shock and loss, but only now that Jennalyn has two small children, a lovely new home, a lucrative side hustle with her art, and a husband who is always working does she feel the full impact of the loss.

Enter an old boyfriend who knew Jennalyn well and who shares many fond memories of her mom. Jennalyn begins to doubt her marriage and all her other life choices ever since her mom passed away. It takes the power of truth, close friends who know her well, and a series of choices at the heart level before Jennalyn can surface from the confusion and see with clarity where her life is headed.


My Rating: 5 Stars
I grew up with Christy Miller and the Haven Maker books are some of the best of all of the Christy books. There is just so much meaning and "life" stuff in these books that make them incredible reads. I really enjoyed this story with Jennalyn and her struggles. The struggles she faces can be a common one for wives and mothers and I identified with her a lot. This story is raw and beautiful and I adored it. I am so looking forward to more in this series!!

I received this book from NetGalley but also purchased a hard copy as well.
