Book Reviews of A Thousand Tomorrows (Cody Gunner Series #1)Book Review: What happened? Summary: 1 StarsKaren Kingsbury has long been one of my favorite authors, but this book let me down. I found it exceedingly hard to believe that a thirteen year old boy, with absolutely no roughstock experience, climbed onto a bull and rode for eight seconds. I've seen bullriding--more importantly, I've seen bullriders who have never been on bulls before ride for the first time. NONE of them stayed on.
And then Ali--a girl with a fatal lung disease that holds her breath for the better part of twenty seconds? Even if her lungs were in top physical condition, it would be difficult at best, considering the fact that unless she's just hanging on and letting the horse do all the work, she's putting her body under stress and wouldn't be able to hold her breath for quite that long.
Ali seemed to have faith in God, but I never saw it in Cody. I wanted to like both of them, but I had a really hard time believing them. I don't know, maybe I'm wrong, but this book fell flat for me.
Summary of A Thousand Tomorrows (Cody Gunner Series #1)Bestselling author Karen Kingsbury delivers a major new novel about a young couple whose powerful love must face the ultimate challenge. Cody Gunner has no use for real love. Abandoned as a child by the person he needed the most, he swears he will never allow himself to lose again. Ali Daniels denies love as well. Carrying a terrible secret, she lives life to the fullest, taking risks and refusing relationships. When Cody and Ali meet, their first instinct is to hide behind their emotional walls, seemingly doomed to repeat the patterns they have established for most of their lives. But their attraction is too strong, and soon they're doomed in another way-for neither can avoid falling in love, regardless of the consequences. Only after three years-a thousand tomorrows later-do they realize at what cost their relationship comes. In the end, they must decide if love is worth the ultimate price.
