Rebellious Heart ~ Jody Hedlund

Rebellious Heart was an amazing book.  Jody Hedlund continues to impress me with her amazing books.  Due to the number of Christian historical fiction books I have read, it takes quite a bit for me to be impressed with a new author.  There are very few authors who have impressed me.  Jody Hedlund is one of them.  She may indeed be my favorite new author now.

Rebellious Heart has an amazing plot.  The suspense, history, and romance all intertwine to make this book amazing.  It was a page turner until the very end.  When you read this make sure you have plenty of time to just sit and read it.  Susanna is a wonderful character that stands out as a very intelligent young woman in a time where it was not proper for women to show that they are educated.  She manages to get herself in trouble numerous times.  Her adventures are very exciting to read about.

The best part of Rebellious Heart is that it is loosely based on John and Abigail Adams.  There are so many times that movies or books come out that make you think less of someone in history.  This story does the exact opposite.  Go read it and find out why I say that;)
