Departures contains two stories from Robin Jones Gunn’s popular series. Now Boarding at Gate 10 finds Christy Miller after high school graduation, on a family trip to Wisconsin. In the Event of a Water Landing is part of the Sierra Jensen series.

I had never read anything by Gunn and did not realize that these stories were part of a series. Someone who has read the other books would probably like this one. I don’t like to read books out of order, but with some books, you can do that and still have an idea of what’s going on. These two stories are okay as stand-alone stories, but for the most part, I think you should skip this book unless you’re a fan of Gunn’s other books.

Now Boarding at Gate 10 felt as if it were missing too much information. I just didn’t know any of the back-story and I felt like I was playing catch-up through the whole thing. After reading Departures, I looked online and apparently Christy and Todd dated for a few years. Knowing that (and possibly other things I don’t know that I don’t know) would have made the story flow better for me. This is why I really dislike reading books out of order.

I’m trying to remember how weird my friends and I were at 15, because from the perspective of a 35-year-old, I don’t really like Sierra Jensen or her friend Jana. Jana has picked this summer to “grow up” and start dating and Sierra isn’t sure she’s ready for that yet. Which is great. She’s reading her Bible and lecturing her friend… then doing the same things she doesn’t like to see Jana doing. She figures it out in the end, but I didn’t enjoy reading it.

So, I would recommend this for readers of the Christy Miller and Sierra Jensen series. If you’re not already familiar with Gunn’s characters, skip this book until you’re caught up on the others. I’ve added the Christy Miller books to my to-read list, but I think I’ll pass on the Sierra Jensen stories.

I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review.

Selena guarda alguns desejos secretos no coração que ela gostaria de ver realizados. Entre eles, reencontrar seus amigos da Califórnia e rever um certo rapaz que aparece e desaparece de sua vida sem deixar pistas. Ah, se isso acontecesse seria bom demais... Quem me dera!

Selena estava contando os dias para a chegada do feriado de Páscoa. Poderia finalmente curtir uma semana de sol, praia, muita diversão, e reencontrar Cris Miller e outros amigos que havia conhecido na Inglaterra.

Mas seus "problemas" acabam indo com ela, pois Tânia, sua irmã mais velha decide acompanhá-la na viagem e logo começa a namorar um dos rapazes que elas conhecem lá. Agora, além da inveja que sente da irmã, Selena fica arrasada por ver que é a única da turma que ainda não tem namorado.

Selena conseguirá mudar seus sentimentos em relação à irmã? Continuará sentindo-se inferior ís amigas por não ter ainda um namorado? Ou tentará enxergar em tudo isso o carinho e o cuidado de Deus por ela?
