Book Review - The Gift by Danielle Steel

The Gift is filled with unexpected events that change a family's future and that of a young girl. The book is quite short but Ms. Steel fills each page with endearing words that keep you attached to each word. Once the ground work was laid out on the Whittaker family, I quickly became attached to this broken family devastated by tragedy. This tale is emotional and saddening and since the book didn't end with that "happily ever after" stage, I felt it was more realistic and reasonable to believe. While I found the book began quite slowly and almost put it away, I was unable to even sit the book down once the first chapter was complete. The Gift is simple yet has depth that touches your soul.
