5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Read
Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2014
Verified Purchase
I enjoyed this story about a woman's life haunted by one decision that affects her entire life. Ignoring or suppressing a problem never makes it go away. Instead it festers inside a person until something makes it lash out. Also, I enjoyed the way she had to learn how to forgive. Forgiveness does not come easy, especially when we are the wronged party. I loved how her husband stuck with her through thick and thin. One thing I enjoyed was that it came from a Catholic point of view. This surprising element taught me some things about this particular denomination I had misconceptions about. Absolved was a wonderful read and I enjoyed it.

Great novel! I would highly recommend to anyone. It is very touching. Very comforting. This is remarkable book and covers past grievance, forgiveness, love and much more. I would love to write more but don't wanna give too much information to anyone that plans to read it. I consider it a must read and thoroughly enjoyed it all the way through. Thank you to the author Christy Decker! I will definitely be looking forward to reading more from this gifted, blessed author!

5.0 out of 5 stars Powerful story of redemption and healing
Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2015

If you have a friend who has lost or left the faith because of an abortion, this book is a must. Journey with Stacie who is dealing with the haunting of an abortion in her past.

The book doesn't pass judgement but rather shows a path of healing through the character. The Catholic faith is showcased well in the story, but all friends of Jesus will enjoy this read.

Thanks Christy Decker, I can't wait to see what's next.

5.0 out of 5 stars A lovely and uplifting story of a young woman's life
Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2016
Verified Purchase
Absolved is an engaging journey about a troubled teenage girl who matures to a reconciled adult and mother. Christy Decker writes with such a casual and personal style that you feel like you are in the heads of her characters. I anguished with her protagonist as she struggled through the disappointments and calamities of life, and cheered as she overcame them all with the help of her savior.

5.0 out of 5 stars Thoughtful book
Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2014

Very thoughtful book about the journey of a young woman dealing with the feelings of having a parent leave, and how that affected her mind, behavior and self esteem for many years. I finished the book days ago and it's one I feel I should go back and revisit as I am still thinking about it. Those are the best kind of books.

Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2015
Written in elegant style with raw emotions. The first chapter drops the reader right in to the story, but the next few don't quite have the same charm.

My main complaint is I wish there was more to the story, that we could go a little deeper, have a little more fleshed out. This is also a sort of compliment, though, as I have ADHD and almost never want a book to be longer than it is.

Reviewed in the United States on October 21, 2014
The story of Stacey and how she learns how to forgive herself and others is poignant and touching. Decker does a good job developing Stacey through all of the hard times life throws at her and did a good job developing the side characters as well. I look forward to seeing more from this author in the future!
