Woman of God

This is the first James Patterson book I have read for adults. I did read one of his children's books. My thought when I was finished, was, “What took me so long?”

It was a terrific book. Very well written and engaging. It details the fascinating life of Brigid Fitzgerald, a doctor who spends her life helping people and seeking God; first in South Sudan as a Doctor and later, when she must move forward from that experience. In spite of that, it's not a preachy book and Brigid's life is far from calm or ordinary. James Patterson weaves the right amount of drama and emotional turmoil into his novel to have you empathizing with Brigid long after the book is finished.
