Critics Review
“Two dozen years ago
“Two dozen years ago we watched in horror as Mount St. Helens erupted on our television screens, fearing for the safety of those who lived beneath her shadow. In The Way of Women, Lauraine Snelling takes us there in graphic, moving detail as she explores the lives of three women deeply affected by the natural disaster. Her careful research and vivid descriptions make the mountain come alive, and the unique challenges each woman faces draw us day by ash-covered day toward a satisfying end.”
–Liz Curtis Higgs, best-selling author of Thorn in My Heart
“In The Way of Women, Lauraine Snelling goes beyond her usual grand storytelling in giving us insights into landscapes, history and life. This time, through her memorable characters, Lauraine explores the explosiveness of loss taking us to the depths of our need for relationships in turbulent times. Grief and disaster can be transforming if we allow God to work in our lives. That’s one way of women I’ll take with me in a story that sings with the beauty of the northwest landscape and Lauraine’s own lovely language. ‘The creek gossiped with the rocks’ and ‘Wait — a four letter word worse than cursing’ are phrases worthy of remembering as is this fine story of God’s power to use each of us to help heal each other and restore ourselves in the process.”
– Jane Kirkpatrick, award-winning author of A Name of Her Own
“Reminding us that love can spring forth from ashes, that life can emerge from death, Lauraine Snelling writes a gripping and powerful novel that will inspire and uplift you.”
–Lynne Hinton, author of The Last Odd Day
