A Higher Voice Sheri Wren Haymore 9780989182102 Books

A HIGHER VOICE was seven books down on my to-be-read stack, but when I decided to read "just a few pages" it moved to the top of the stack--and refused to be put down.

I won't recap the storyline here--other reviewers have done that. Rather, let me just say that it's hard to believe that A HIGHER VOICE is Haymore's debut novel. She is a master of dialogue, her main characters were well developed, and the plot kept me engaged. I found myself thinking about the characters when I was away from the book, and worrying about them (to the point of wanting to shout warnings!) as I read. This is a book I've already recommended to friends, and an author I hope will give us more books--soon!

A Higher Voice Sheri Wren Haymore 9780989182102 Books Reviews

From the first page I was rooting for Ms. Haymore's characters Britt and Dena. With great care she writes their stories and the scenery around them perfectly. Britt is likable - he is a master of his career, he hasn't lost touch with reality and reads like a man any of us could know. Dena is charming, a strong mother with unfortunate drama in her life. She is patient, kind and loving - almost to a fault.

After reading several shorter novellas this one was a bit harder for me to get through. It is a whopping 450 pages. Within that, our villain seemed to be a cookie-cutter version of a stalker and with the amount of page turns given to A Higher Voice I expected a little more character development in that plot point. Otherwise, the book is superbly written and edited nicely.

Once again my feelings on Christian fiction are solidified. It's not what people might think it is, there are some really great stories out there of true acts of love. This is definitely one that refuses to be put down once started. This is a great debut novel for Ms. Haymore and I look forward to seeing more from her down the road.

I was given a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
A Higher Voice by Sheri Wren Haymore
Britt Jordan is a famous rock singer. He's been a hit for more than 20 years. Lately, though, he's had some issues. He's hearing overwhelmingly loud noises in his head and feels excruciating nausea. Nothing seems to quiet the noise or calm the sickness except dumping ice water over his head - complete pitchers of ice water. Nothing that is, until he meets Dena Martin.
Dena is the owner of a small-town newspaper and the mother of a 12-year-old daughter. The connection between Dena and Britt is instantaneous. Within days, Britt knows this is the woman he wants to share his life. She has quieted the noise in his head and healed the sickness in his gut by her very presence.
There is more to this simple story, though. Britt is losing his voice. His career will be lost to him without his voice - but Britt has damaged it beyond repair with years of screaming into the microphone.
Add to this ongoing drama a stalker; a psychotic brother who looks eerily like Britt and hates him fiercely and the story gains even more intensity.
Sheri Wren Haymore wrote most of her characters as multi-dimensional beings, making Britt easy to like. He walks off the page and takes on the persona of a "real" person. The reader gets wrapped up in the saga of Britt's and Dena's lives. Secondary characters are not as well developed. One example is Phillip, Britt's brother who is stalking Dena. There simply aren't enough details provided to make his hate understandable. He comes off as a cardboard cutout of a character.
Dena, though definitely a well-created character, is occasionally too sweet, almost saccharine. I found myself asking how many people are always this kind and always this patient, and found it unlikely any human could be quite this perfect. Dena could be annoying with her sweetness. She was also a really religious person, and brought the "Christian" aspect to the book.
Frankly, I am not a fan of Christian fiction and, as a general rule, do not read or review it. That being said, Haymore never came off as preachy and only had her characters mention "being saved" or church or other traditional Christian terms a very few times. When it came time for Britt to do some soul-searching, at no time was any specific type of religion foisted about. This was a very refreshing change. For those considering reading A Higher Voice (and I encourage folks to do so), I think you'll be pleasantly surprised with the outcome.
A Higher Voice is an exceptionally well-written novel with a smooth writing style and fun characters. Even though the novel is quite thick, it is so wonderfully engrossing and the tale so appealing, I read it almost entirely in one sitting. The author is able to pull the reader into the story so deeply, the outside world ceases to exist. The reader wants to know what happens to the characters. The characters' lives take on meaning and importance. Haymore is an author to watch.
I received a copy of this novel from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.
This was an awesome, uplifting,can't put down mystery. I can't wait for her 2nd book to be published. Sheri, this is a great book. You should be very proud.
I loved the book, the story, the character Dena, and the author!
It is a beautifully reaffirming story of unconditional love; and the sometimes crazy demons that can drive us.
Just finished reading this book and it did not take me long at all to read. The relationship that Britt and Dena form is outstanding and all of the things they go through as a couple keep you on the edge of your seat and make you want to keep reading. There are so many emotions felt when reading this book and I would highly recommend it! It will not let you down!!
Loved the characters. The suspense and action at times were nerve racking and I had a hard time putting this one down. Excellent.
Congratulations to Sheri on her first novel A HIGHER VOICE.....This book is a nail biter from start to finish and you will feel like you have been with Dena and Britt through thick and thin. A wonderful book of suspense, mystery and romance......A definite must read!!!! I thoroughly enjoyed and look forward to her next book, WAY TO GO SHERI!
