I found this book, falling apart, at the back of a privately owned used book store located just off of the courthouse square in downtown Seguin. The title was "A Woman of Destiny", the cover was bent and worn, and several of the middle pages were loose. However, this was before I'd discovered the wonders of used books on Amazon.com and so I was collecting every Card book I could find by way of - if I saw it, and I didn't own it, I bought it. I had no idea what I'd found...

It took me quite a long time to get through it. The story starts very slow, and is set in England during the Industrial Revolution - which is one of my LEAST favorite time periods. However, the story begins to truly develop and ends up being one of the most engaging emotional reads of my life. Don't get me wrong, it was very hard to finish the book because the trials of themain character are so incredibly heart breaking - but it is good. Once again, Card pulls off a masterpiece. Only, this time, he's left me realizing I'm totally a second rater. I fear I love my son more than I love God - I don't think I could ever make the choices that Dinah did. Oh well.
