Capturing Hope had my heart racing. From the opening chapter to the very last page, I could not put the book down.
Capturing Hope opens in Poland on the eve of the Nazi's invasion. Nadia's father makes David promise to get Nadia safely to England–and the adventure is on.
Angela brought the reality of the bombing of Poland to life. I'm pretty sure my breathing was coming way too fast and shallow as I followed David and Nadia through Warsaw, dodging bombs and rescuing innocent lives.
The characters were absolutely captivating. David and Nadia both had a lovely character arc as they learned to put others ahead of themselves. My favorite kind of people to read about.
I loved the beautiful theme of the hope in the midst of trials and sacrifice.
I wasn't entirely satisfied with how David's problems were dealt with in the end. He was making progress in trusting God, but I would have liked to see him come just a little farther, become just a little stronger in his faith. Especially before becoming a husband and father.
All things considered, I truly did enjoy this book. I would definitely recommend it for anyone in the mood for a World War II novel full of danger, adventure, and faith.
