"While it took a bit to become interested in the characters, I did like this a lot. The author skips around with telling the story from various points of view but brings it together nicely in the end.

"Jeannette Walls does a wonderful job of describing her childhoos in her dysfunctional family as she saw it at the time rather than through the judgements of an adult. The story is at once heartwarming and heartrending.

Jordan Crawford was born the daughter of a teenage mother and an alcoholic father. When Jordan was three years old, she lost both of her parents on the same day. She was raised by her God-fearing grandmother who was fondly called “Mommy Dear”. Mommy Dear realized that Jordan was special early on. Blessed with independence and a sharp mind, Jordan breezed through her studies. To keep Jordan entertained, Mommy Dear often allowed her to go to the library. This seemed to satisfy her growing desire to learn. It was at the library that Jordan met a young lawyer who recognized Jordan’s tenacity and thirst for knowledge. With the blessing of her grandmother, the young lawyer began to mentor Jordan.
As fate would have it, tragedy strikes again when Mommy Dear dies and leaves Jordan with no real family. Confused and feeling abandoned, Jordan was placed in a strict foster home. Jordan’s new foster parents believed that all she needed to be focused on were school, her chores and their church. As Jordan blossomed, she was unable to attend the many functions that girls her age went to. Jordan excelled in junior high and graduated from high school with high honors. Soon after, Jordan went off to college and set on the path of becoming a successful lawyer. Jordan believed that if she worked hard, she could reach all of her goals and her dreams would come true. She was right, but nothing she did would ever fill the void that she had come to know so well. Jordan was driven and determined to escape her childhood. As the years passed, Jordan refused to return to the home that she shared with her foster parents, but when she received a call about her foster father’s untimely death, Jordan was forced to face the life she thought she had left behind. Over the years, Jordan learned to guard her heart and vowed to never let anyone in especially not God. She felt that God had failed her by taking everyone that she loved away, that is until a blast from the past comes back into her life and she finds herself looking at her circumstances through the eyes of a child. Journey to Jordan is a touching tale of tragedy, faith and triumph. Donna Deloney has penned a story with relatable characters with realistic lives. I highly recommend this book to all readers Unika Howell-Molden AAMBC Reviewer(less) " |
