Pretense by Lori WickMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
This book chronicles the story of the Bishop family's life journey: Marrell Bishop, loving wife and mother; Paul Bishop, army officer, husband and father; Mackenzie Bishop, eldest daughter; and Delancey Bishop, younger daughter. Each of them experience both hard times and transformative times in their faith journey.
This story is so rich in character--both in writing and in personalities. I could spend many more hours with these people. I still feel a kinship and close connection with each one every time I revisit their story. This is not a superficial story about "he/she said" or he/she did." It is a close-up view of life as it is experienced by these characters--so much so that I forget they are fictional. Like "Sophie's Heart", this is one of my favorite and best-loved books.
