For the second time in her marriage, Mariah White catches her husband with another woman, and Faith, their seven-year-old daughter, witnesses every painful minute. In the aftermath of a sudden divorce, Mariah struggles with depression and Faith begins to confide in an imaginary friend. At first, Mariah dismisses these exchanges as a childs imagination. But when Faith starts reciting passages from the Bible, develops stigmata, and begins to perform miraculous healings, Mariah wonders if her daughter a girl with no religious background might indeed be seeing God.A great read, as always! The moral dilemma for all characters involved and in particular the strong motherly feelings and instincts are well developed. A must read and unputdownable...
This was such an enthralling book! I loved reading it. Picoult does such an amazing job portraying what the characters are feeling. I really felt bad for the little girl and all the publicity. I especially felt bad for her mom to have to go through everything she did with her husband. It definitely grabbed me from the first couple pages, and I didn't want to put it down. "Keeping Faith" was a very touching story. I do think I liked "The Pact" better, but I enjoyed the storyline.
