 Karen Kingsbury December 22, 2008
This was the last book in the Sunrise Series and the final book for this family - There have been several different series involving this family and I've read every book in each of the different series leading up to this one. As always, Karen Kingsbury leaves you wanting the next book. Unfortunately this is the last one for this family.
All of her books grab your attention from the first page and if you've never read any of her books, this is a must read author.
Baxter Family Finale November 30, 2008
Wow! That is the first word that comes to mind after reading this fourth and final book in the Sunrise Series by Karen Kingsbury. Karen Kingsbury writes so that you feel like you are a part of each and every book! I felt like I was a Baxter or a very close friend of the family anyway. This series, as well as every book that Karen Kingsbury has written, is a must read! I have yet to read just an "okay" book written by this author. I highly recommended this author and this book.
Awesome Booj November 25, 2008
I absolutely love this series. It is just a compelling storyline about a family who has all kinds of things happen to it and the only way they all get through it is with God's help. I cried while reading everyone of the books in this series. I recommend though that you start at the beginning of the series. This is actually the third series about this family.
 Disappointing ending to an otherwise outstanding series November 22, 2008
Sunset is the fourth book in the Sunrise Series and the last of 14 books about the Baxter family. I immensely enjoyed the first 13 books and had looked forward to this final book with much anticipation and even a little sadness. After finishing it, however, I only felt disappointment.
Knowing that this was to be the "end" of the Baxter story, Kingsbury tries to wrap up ALL of the loose ends from the previous books...many of which did not need wrapping up. Happy endings are enjoyable, but when every single ending is picture perfect, the story loses a lot of the realism that makes the rest of the series so easy to relate to. There was less depth in this book, and too many easy answers.
Finally, the thing that bothered me most in this book was the way that Angela Manning (from the very first Baxter book, Redemption) is reintroduced. How would she not have recognized Kari?!? They spoke face-to-face in Redemption! And under the circumstances, neither would ever forget the other. The fact that the author forgot -- as well as her editors and the many other people who read her books before they go to print -- is hard to comprehend. That entire storyline felt forced and untrue.
The series is an excellent one, and Kingsbury is one of my favorite authors, but Sunset left much to be desired.
Sunset November 22, 2008
Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful as always when Karen Kingsbury writes a book. I love the inspriational writings and I have enjoyed reading about the Baxter's. I always buy her books and many are waiting to borrow when I am through reading. Again this is, as always, very good reading.
