My Thoughts on Touched by Fate:

This book is different than most that I’ve read.  It’s about a woman embarking on a second marriage after number one wasn’t the happily ever after kind.  You’ll feel and read about her emotions and preparations for the big day. 

The part I loved the most was the unique culture.  This culture is so different than mine and I love learning about other cultures.  For Analyn this is the Afro-Filipino culture.

This is a short book, but it covers lots of ground and the characters are really engaging.  It didn’t take long to read but I had hoped it would be longer.  I’d definitely like to revisit some of the characters and see what comes next in their lives.  

Short negative time.  While the book was really good there are some curse words within it.  I don’t normally read books with curse words.  My normal policy is that if I come across more than one curse word within the first chapter then I stop reading.  With review books, I give them a bit more leeway but I do note that hey this has some language so beware.  This book without the language still would have made sense and been a great book!
