Law of Moses
Law of Moses | Amy Harmon
20 posts | 42 read | 17 to read
"If I tell you right up front, right in the beginning that I lost him, it will be easier for you to bear. You will know it's coming, and it will hurt. But you'll be able to prepare." Someone found him in a laundry basket at the Quick Wash, wrapped in a towel, a few hours old and close to death. They called him Baby Moses when they shared his story on the ten o'clock news - the little baby left in a basket at a dingy Laundromat, born to a crack addict and expected to have all sorts of problems. I imagined the crack baby, Moses, having a giant crack that ran down his body, like he'd been broken at birth. I knew that wasn't what the term meant, but the image stuck in my mind. Maybe the fact that he was broken drew me to him from the start. It all happened before I was born, and by the time I met Moses and my mom told me all about him, the story was old news and nobody wanted anything to do with him. People love babies, even sick babies. Even crack babies. But babies grow up to be kids, and kids grow up to be teenagers. Nobody wants a messed up teenager. And Moses was messed up. Moses was a law unto himself. But he was also strange and exotic and beautiful. To be with him would change my life in ways I could never have imagined. Maybe I should have stayed away. Maybe I should have listened. My mother warned me. Even Moses warned me. But I didn't stay away. And so begins a story of pain and promise, of heartache and healing, of life and death. A story of before and after, of new beginnings and never-endings. But most of all . . . a love story.

Book 146 I listened to this book about Moses who paints pictures of murdered girls. Moses sees the unrested dead and paints what they telepathically communicate to him. Ultimately, The Law of Moses is a complicated love story, imbued with rich emotion. It's the emotion that makes this book so recommendable. There is one scene in particular that I won't forget anytime soon.

Oh WoW... just finished this book and I am head over heels fallen in love with Moses and Georgie.

The story was beyond everything I thought it would be and I was happy and sad and cried a little and than I was happy again. The pace of the book is really really good and I loved how honest everything was.

Yes this book is a keeper!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5

5/5 ⭐️

While waiting for Amy Harmon‘s new release, I thought I‘d re-read this one. I knew I‘d loved it before but couldn‘t really remember why. Now I know. She is such an incredible writer and creates the most tortured love stories sometimes. This one can never be less than 5 stars for me. #romantsy #augustreads #bookbonanza19

⭐️⭐️⭐️ 3 Stars

I really enjoyed this, but wasn‘t fully engaged or invested. I went into this blindly, but I had read one of Amy‘s books before (#WhatTheWindKnows). I was really excited since that is one of my all-time favorites. Because of that I think I set myself up with high expectations. Still very good, but not amazing in comparison, imo. It will throw some curveballs at you though! #Paranormal #Romance #KindleUnlimited

Waiting in the school pick up line is a little less daunting with my Kindle and iced tea to keep me company! Any other mamas read in the car regularly??! #💜themrs #momswhoread

My sister told me about this one and I‘m glad she did. Such a heartbreaking story. I really loved the characters and will be thinking of them for a while.

This is one of those rare books that is so difficult to review, not because I didn't love it, (because I did), but because my words just won't give it justice. This was my 3rd book by Amy Harmon and all I can say is wow! No matter what genre she writes in, her character are so well developed and her stories are beautiful. If you haven't read an Amy Harmon book, do yourself a favor and do so. You won't be disappointed

“It was both manic and mesmerizing, it was controlled chaos and detailed dementia.” The Law of Moses

A surprisingly beautiful story, tragic and sweet. Both Moses and Georgia are wonderful characters, raw and sincere. I could see and feel everything through their eyes. I wasn't expecting the paranormal twist, which was mysterious and inspiring. I ended this story with my gut twisting, tears in my eyes and a smile on my face. #tearjerker

This book was so, so good! I wish it could become a movie. The story was so interesting, i was so very intrigue with this book that I finished it in one setting. One of the best book I've read so fay this year. It's a very beautiful story for many reasons and one you won't soon forget. 5/5 ⭐️

...WOW. The first half of this book was pretty stellar — teenaged Georgia and Moses were raw and flawed and GREAT. Except then we jumped ahead 7 years and the story devolved into a mostly typical "he left me and then he returned!" romance. Still, a heartfelt and emotional story. ★★★★☆.

Mehso-so

Not an easy book to rate. Very emotional and at times the characters could be really difficult to relate to. I don't regret reading it but it isn't exactly my style.
