Charlotte was willing to accept whatever suffering came her way, just to be with the man she loves. But she could never have foreseen how difficult it was going to be to weather the louring tempests of her husband’s depression. Mystified by why her devotion is not enough to make John happy, she carries the burden of his sadness, unaware that it is a long-ago secret, kept from his aunt Lily, that prevents him from surrendering to the joy born of true love. Healing is about to come from an unlikely place, as it often does with anyone who has known Lily and grows to understand that something quite unexpected can change everything.

About the Author Sherry Boas holds a B.S. in journalism from Arizona State University and wrote for a daily newspaper for ten years. Although she won numerous awards as a journalist, it was her vocation as a mother that would best prepare her for an author's career. For her, truth resounds in the struggles and triumphs of every-day family life. And fiction, although made up, must still be true. Sherry has a passion for truth and is picky about little else. Except, of course, how her coffee is grown, harvested, roasted, ground, stored and brewed. She places such a high value on friendship, however, that she will drink even a bad cup of coffee with a good friend. Sherry and her husband, Phil, are the joyful adoptive parents of four warm-hearted and highly-adrenalized human beings, who make life rich beyond belief. They live in Arizona.

Deep Character Development, Meaningful Back Story Like the Lily Trilogy By Trisha Niermeyer Potter Things Unknown to Lily has the depth, rich backstory, and character development I liked best about the Lily Trilogy. Fewer characters developed at much greater length made this book more enjoyable and similar to the style and substance of the first three books.Dealing with the struggles of living with and/or suffering from depression are all-too-familiar for many people. Studies show that approximately 1 in 5 adults in the U.S. experience mental illness in a given year. That means the chances are better than average that you, a spouse, child, co-worker, and/or friend of yours is presently struggling with a potentially devastating invisible illness.The book engages the reader through the characters’ common, though rarely said aloud questions (Will anyone ever really love me who gets to know me intimately? What have I gotten myself into marrying someone who suffers from depression? Will things ever get better?) They grapple with the questions that most people ask at some point in life about self-worth, relationships, intimacy, pain, suffering, vocations, and marriage. The details, conversations, conflicts, and decisions illustrate that life is a complex journey with many ups and downs. The struggles and suffering are real, but the triumphs and healing are, too.

The books lead us through the lives of different generations of a family. They show us how each family member is positively affected by Lily, a girl/woman with Down Syndrome. But the books go beyond Lily - they show us the struggles that the family members go through and how they travel on their faith journey to overcome their problems. I would recommend this book for ages 15 and up.

For those who haven't read the other books, Lily was a woman with Downs Syndrome who made a profound (and good) difference in the life of her family. This is the story of her nephew (whose mother conceived him so that Lily could have a child to help raise) and his wife. John, the nephew suffers from depression. His wife Charlotte is almost totally blind, and will be totally blind soon. Charlotte wants to help John, but he won't let her in. In the end, Lily is the answer.I love Sherry Boas' writing, not only her stories, but her writing as well, and if you peruse this blog, you'll find that there are few writers about whom I say that. She has a real gift in her use of language; if I had to guess I'd say she was a poet in a previous life, not a journalist (though in reality, she was a journalist).While classified as religious fiction, Things Unknown to Lily is on the milder end of the spectrum. The fact that the characters have faith is mentioned, and Mother Theresa makes an appearance but this is no sermon dressed as a story. The faith elements are there, but they belong in the story naturally and for the most part did not feel forced. It is definitely not a "find Jesus and life will be grand" book.Fans of the series will enjoy catching up with members of the Lovely family but Things Unknown to Lily stands well on its own--you don't have to read the other books first, but they do add an additional dimension to the story. I like it enough to give it an A- and if you've read this blog very long, you'll know that's high praise.I'd like to thank Catholic Word for sending me a review copy of the book.
