If you are looking for a great summer read, you should check out The Intrusion, by Kristin Detrow. You can pick up a hard copy or Kindle version on Amazon.com. (Ahem, you're welcome Amazon.) Or, if you know me personally, you can always borrow my copy.
I'm telling you, you will not be able to put this book down. Have you ever heard of a Christian thriller? Yeah, me neither. It sort of sounds like an oxymoron, doesn't it? Even if you are not a believer, I think you will still enjoy the story. I would of finished the book in one day, but I couldn't allow myself to read it at night. It was way too suspenseful and had me on the edge of my seat.
The book is about a couple who have fertility issues, but do conceive through IVF and that's when the "fun" begins. Kris's book makes you think about life and how there truly is a spiritual battle going on amongst us that we cannot see (nor would we want to!), but you can bet your boots it's going on. The book also expresses the true forgiveness and protection we can only receive through knowing Jesus Christ.
The way Kris writes is witty and funny, to say the least. She is an amazing, creative and talented writer and she wrote the book all for the glory of God. I laughed, cried and was scared at times througout the book. I was sad when it finally ended. I even got my husband to read it, who isn't a reader at all. He too enjoyed the book. Kris does a wonderful job of leaving you wanting more. I've heard that she is currently writing a sequel and I cannot wait to read it!
I 2nd this recommendation!! Awesome book!
