Sister Sunday Kindle Edition

4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars 48 ratings
See all formats and editions
Each day Delitha has two goals: do her work well and stay out of her mother's way. As the daughter of an innkeeper, it doesn't seem odd that Delitha would live her young life as a servant. But few would guess at the darkness surrounding her family. Sister Sunday follows the life of Georgia born and bred Delitha in the 1920s. She desires to know life apart from grueling work and abuse. Finally finding it in New York City with an adoring and independent aunt, Delitha has freedom to let go of bitterness and learn about life as she could live it. But never could Delitha have planned that her path to forgiveness and love would lead back home to Georgia. Sister Sunday shows how strength is cultivated through endurance, how life is beautiful when simple, and that mercy and grace change everything.

I LIKE this book! Wait..let me start over- I have been reading books for so many years that I often find it difficult to find one I like anymore. I will check out books from the library, or pick up a paperback from a thrift store, or I might buy a book brand new, or borrow one from a friend to read. I will begin to read many books...only to grow bored with the story and skip to the end to read the predictable ending. Or I will quickly realize that it is poorly written and say goodbye to the book forever. I have a really hard time finding a book I like anymore. I even stopped reading fiction for a few years.
So....when I heard that a former classmate and friend had published a book, I decided immediately that I must purchase the book and read it. So I did. I promised myself that I would read it objectively. Now, I did not purchase a print copy because I was impatient to get started. I bought it on Kindle. I must say that I was pleasantly surprised with Sister Sunday. It is a REALLY GOOD BOOK. It isn't like any other story I have read before...and believe me, I have read a ton of books over the years. Since it was not a story I could easily figure out or predict, I never grew bored or skipped to the end. I read it and thoroughly enjoyed it. It had everything I would want in a story...complicated family drama, dramatic changes for the main character, historical references, excitement, romance...and most importantly forgiveness and a beautiful display of how God works all things for the good in everyone's lives. I don't mean to say I am surprised that my friend from long ago (the author) is such a good writer! I am just glad! Excellent work, Beth! I will be purchasing a print copy (or copies) and passing them around. I look forward to reading more of your books in the future (please)!

I loved this story. The author used her words well--delivering such a vivid picture of the characters as they developed through the story. I picked it up and read it cover to cover in a 6 hour window of time. It was a great 6 hours--for most of that time, I was living in an era 50 years prior to my birth. I was slightly shocked at the ending of the book, but also half expected something along the lines of what actually happened. I really hope there'll be a follow up released soon--I'll be pre-ordering it as soon as that is an option.

Sister Sunday was so good. I really enjoyed it very much. You cannot help but be drawn into the world of Delitha and want what is best for her. This is the type of book that is hard to put down and you don’t want to end. Thank you, Beth, for sharing your talents with us and having your first book published. God bless you in your future writing endeavors. Looking forward to more of your work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Impossible to put down.

The author has taken us inside of the life of a young woman who's life is very removed from anything many of us have ever experienced and given her readers insights that will only grow us into more thoughtful and kind Christ followers. She does this through a riveting story that keeps us cheering on the characters in the story to choose wisely; to have success. I highly recommend this book to anyone and especially to anyone working with young people.

In the midst of all of the crazy things going on in our world right now, Sister Sunday is a delightful and refreshing read. Ms. Baus does an incredible job of drawing her readers into this historical fiction with descriptive imagery. The lessons of love, grace, and forgiveness that young Delitha learns as she grows throughout the novel leaves the reader with a warm and peaceful feeling. I would definitely recommend Sister Sunday!

This book wrapped me up like a warm blanket. With charming and complex characters and an irresistable storyline, I couldn't put it down, reading the entire book in one day! The beautifully written internal dialogue made me feel as if I were with the main character in spirit and brought me to tears a few times. The satisfying ending after a few gentle twists was the perfect closure.

I couldn't put this book down! From the moment I started reading, these characters jumped into my heart and I couldn't wait to start discovering their story. And just when I thought I had their story figured out I encountered delightful twists and turns that left me glued to the pages. I highly recommend this book!!!
