September 15, 2007: 'Through Every Storm' is the perfect title for this heartfelt, heartwrenching novel by author Sharlene MacLaren. A young couple loses a beloved child in an unforeseen tragic occurrence, and the devastation to their spirits, and their marriage, is captured in sensitive, compassionate detail through the pages of this emotional story. When the marriage has all but died as a result of neglect and emotional distance, a precocious seven-year-old comes into their lives and touches hearts frozen in grief and bitterness. Ms. MacLaren captures the spirit of each character beautifully. It's obvious that she has a heart for children. Timmy's character was delightful, and brought back memories of my own children at this age. Her insights into a marriage tested in a way that 'thankfully!' few must endure are poignant and dead-on. This was the first book by this author that I have had the opportunity to read. I won't be signing off tonight until I have the remainder of the books in her catalog on order! Highly recommended!

February 01, 2007: MacLaren's debut book is a page-turner. A compelling plot, her characters are deep, both fragile and strong?especially the little boy, Timmy. MacLaren portrays the genius child with a depth of insight I found completely believable. He was still a child with childish ways, in spite of his brilliant mind. Without giving away the end, both Maddie and Jeff find their way back to God in a manner I found natural and in harmony with the story. I applaud MacLaren for not overwriting this. This heartrending tale unfolds at just the right pace and carries the reader through to a very satisfying end. Novel Reviews gives Through Every Storm a high recommendation.
