Book Giveaway ~ Still House Pond

Still House PondLilly Gray Corbett is growing up…and although she is {most} always willing to help her mama, Copper, by watching her younger siblings, she longs to be a little bit independent. When the opportunity arises for her to spend a month visiting with her aunt ~ including traveling by herself on the train, she is thrilled.

When Lilly’s parents receive word that her train was involved in a crash, they rush to the wreckage, holding onto the hope that their daughter is still alive. Was her decision to allow Lilly to go the wrong one ~ and will she live to regret it?

My Thoughts

Until I was about 2/3 of the way through Still House Pond by Jan Watson, I didn’t even realize it was part of the Troublesome Creek series. The book is definitely able to be read independent of the other books, but you will find yourself wanting to know more of the stories of the other characters in the book.

Jan Watson won the 2004 Christian Writers Guild Operation First Novel contest for her first novel, Troublesome Creek. Her other awards include a nomination for the Kentucky Literary Award in 2006 and second place in the 2006 Inspirational Readers Choice Contest sponsored by the Faith, Hope, and Love Chapter of the Romance Writers of America. Willow Springs and Torrent Falls are the sequels to Troublesome Creek.
