Karen Kingsbury has been one of my favorite authors of Christian books. The books in this series, but, really are disappointing. “Take Three” is just too predictable. Many of the events in the book are unbelievable. Her character “Clarence” was taken straight out of the movie “It’s a Wonderful Life”. Ms. Kingsbury seems to be going the way of many best-selling authors. Her books are getting to be all alike. When I read this one, I kept thinking I’d read it before. I won’t be spending my money on any more of this leader’s books.

Karen you outdid yourself again! Like learning about all the characters and cannot wait to get my copy of Take Four and Unlocked! Your books place me entranced until the very end! I was raped my ex-boyfriend and when I establish out about my firstborn I seriously contemplated abortion but today she is twenty and as gorgeous as ever. Over the last seven years God has healed me emotionally, physically, and emotionally. This book hit me to the core! I have so many favorite authors but you are at the top of my list. My goal is to get all of your books, I do have most of them!

As with all Karen Kingsbury books, this one is hard to place down I made myself wait until after I had most of my house work done before starting, because. . . well, I knew I wouldn’t place it down till I hit the back take in (I was right)
A LOT happens in Take Three!! So much I want to say but I don’t want to give anything away. This tale has many lessons. Some simple to see, and many I’m sure I didn’t catch. Karen writes characters just like us, REAL people. One of the challenges her characters have is prayer, not that they didn’t pray, but they didn’t permanently listen to the answers – for a while at least.
Bailey has so many choices during this summer. What does she really want with her life. What sacrifices will she make to get what she wants. Can she have everything she wants, or will she lose something in the process. Can she be the friend that Andi needs or will Andi turn her back to everything she has ever known.
As movie producers, how much are Keith and Chase willing to sacrifice?? Their goal: To make movies that elevate God. Will Chase forget his marriage vows?? Will Keith loose his daughter?? Can they produce movies that will make people look to God and hold onto their familys too?
Take Three is a tale of relationships: Breaking, growing, healing, changing. I like how the changes are wound so effortlessly.
I expected some of the things I read, and was surprised by others. The tale is set for “Take Four”, and I can’t wait for its relief in June 2010!!
The main characters at the end of Take Two (in case it’s been a while since you read it):
*Andi – 19 yr ancient Daughter of Keith and Lisa Ellison. Student at Indiana University. Dating Taz and just concluded a fleeting movie with partial nudity.
*Bailey – 19 yr ancient daughter of Jim and Jenny Flanagan. Student at Indiana University. Dating Tim, but has feeling for Cody. Plans to audition in NY for a Broadway show with Tim at the end of the Summer.
*Brandon Paul – One of the Rising stars originally preparation to play the lead in the newest movie by Keith and Chase, but his company has chose to write a tale nearly identical and cut out Keith and Chase.
*Chase – Married to Kelly, has two preschool aged girls. Struggling with an attraction to Kendall. Producers of “The Last Letter” and preparation “Unlocked”
*Cole – (Around 22 yrs ancient) Student at Indiana University. Recovering alcoholic. Lost a leg during imprisonment in Iraq. In like with Bailey, but will not mention anything because of Tim.
*Dayne – Married to Katy (CKT) with one daughter. Taking a break from acting. Oldest son in the Baxter family tree.
*Keith – Married to Lisa, Father to Andi. Director of “The Last Letter”. Preparing for Unlocked. Ex- missionary in Indonesia.
*Kendall – Grown up daughter to Ben. A pair who help finance and promote “The Last Letter” and plot to work with “Unlocked” in whatever ways possible. Attracted to Chase.
*Luke – Married to Reagan, two children. Lawyer for Dayne and also Jeremiah Produtions. Was having marital problems, but they have worked through them.
*Tim – 20 yr ancient. Student at Indiana University. Ex- CKT. Plans to go to NY and be a part of Broadway. Dating Bailey.
*Note this book review was done because I like reading Karen’s books, and I was not questioned to write the review (positive or negative)
** Note, I would not try to read Take Three until after you have read at least Take One and Take Two (but better would be to start at the very beginning with the Redemption Series {Baxter’s & Katy}and then First Born Series {Baxter’s & Dayne & Katy}and Sunrise Series {Dayne, Katy, Bailey}) Bailey is in all of the tales with Tim and Cody in at least a tiny part. Andi, Keith, Chase and group all are part of the Above the Line series, so you won’t be missing anything about them if you start at Take One

I could not place this book down! I am a romantic, so I especially loved reading about Bailey and Cody. As a teacher of teens, I’m glad the message about abortion is addressed. Advice: Read everything Karen Kingsbury writes!

This was an brilliant book! I had a hard time putting it down. It resolved a lot of things that had left me hanging from the last book. I’m so looking forwards to reading Take Four!
