Finding Freedom (Piper Anderson, #4) in Piper Anderson Series Discussion

Mar 21, 2014 Shy rated it it was amazing

I never looked at freedom so literally before but with Jedda, Bobby’s brother being added into the picture, I was brought to look in a whole new perspective of things.

This time around, those emotions I had when I felt irritated to Bobby was directed to a new person name Willow. I felt like I don’t know her yet but I can’t help myself feeling all worked up with the way she reacted and decided on things most of the time. And it mades me feel guilty for looking at her situation with the way most of I never looked at freedom so literally before but with Jedda, Bobby’s brother being added into the picture, I was brought to look in a whole new perspective of things.

This time around, those emotions I had when I felt irritated to Bobby was directed to a new person name Willow. I felt like I don’t know her yet but I can’t help myself feeling all worked up with the way she reacted and decided on things most of the time. And it mades me feel guilty for looking at her situation with the way most of the people around her did. I guess it’s because I feel Jedda’s sacrifice was something that shouldn’t be dealt lightly and had to be compensated with how Willow will act on it.

This book is not just about Jedda and Willow though, it’s also about Betty and Clay though I must admit they make me feel awkward – something I don’t really know how to explain. Of Michael and Jules and their little one and still of Piper and Bobby and their bright future ahead of them.

I love that Betty got a second chance at love, that Jules could be so selfless as to sacrifice her wedding and how Betty knew her so much not to thread on what her daughter was saying. I felt happy seeing Piper being emotionally grown up, and seeing Bobby more free of the past that had him torn before. I love how Michael and Bobby built this friendship that got them supporting each others back and same goes with Piper and Jules.

Though this book is more about Jedda and Crystal, I love that you get to see everybody else in a better light. I love books where you see characters grow, learn and stand up from where life knocked them down. And this series was about all of those for all the characters and not only Piper. And like what I’ve said in my other reviews, I love books that tells great stories of family and friendship and this book is about that. In fact, for me this is not even a romance or suspense story, this is about life, family, friendship, of growing up and learning to understand people who’s walking with a different shoes.

I really enjoyed going through the journey with Piper and the other characters in this book. I fell in love with Michael to the point of hoping there’s him and Piper, but totally change my mind when Jules entered the scene. I have grown to understand Bobby and admire his ideals. I’m all heart with Betty and her cooking and the way she understood everyone else. I even love Edenville even if it’s people are sometimes disappointing. I long to read more about Chris and of Piper’s family. I am actually looking forward to read more about them and a bit disappointed that I didn’t. But hey, there’s still a next book and there’s still Betty’s journal and the novella that I haven’t read.

Danielle Stewart did an amazing job writing this series and you bet, I’ll eagerly look forward to the the next one.

In her fourth book in The Piper Anderson Series, Finding Freedom, author Danielle Stewart examines the injustices of the court system and the struggles that many paroled inmates face when they are released.
