Review by Midniht 3 Stars out of 4
If you are a christian, a struggling christian or just like to read
different kinds of books you will love this book. The story of
Corrie Ten Boom is full of love, triumph and tragedy, and overcoming
the evil of the world during a time when you were persecuted for helping
your friends and loved ones. When you read this book be prepared
to laugh, cry and at times, either be filled with anger and
hatred or have to stop and praise or plead with god. Please, please
read this book! It is a great true life story that is worth every moment
you are afraid you are "wasting".
Reader Feedback
My mother suggested to me, an eight grade student, that I read "The Hiding
Place". I wasn't sure I'd enjoy the book because it was old and the cover
torn, the pages creased-- yet I loved it. This book was about self-discipline,
love, anger, forgiveness and related to all emotions felt through a lifetime,
even though the cause may not be nearly dramatic. I just want to
say that I feel this book should have a higher rating than 3 stars. It
inspired me to read it again and again and make the most of every day.
Even the part where Corrie sews red flowers to her pajamas got me into
stitching beautiful, petaled flowers to my school bag to make it happier.
