Wally Lamb plus Faith
If you have read and enjoyed books by Wally Lamb, you will love The Dead Don't Dance. It reminded me very much of both I Know This Much is True and The Hour I First Believed. It follows Dylan Stiles, the main character, as his life spirals as a result of tragedy and his struggle to understand why bad things happen to good people. Most importantly, he does this through the lens of faith in God, without which we are all lost. Excellent read.

I truly love the way Charles Martin writes. Once I start reading, I can't quit til the end. This is a great book.

Insightful and thought provoking. Sometimes life does not happen the way we want it to...if you've ever experienced that or known anyone who has this book is for you.

A story of life, the joys, the hurts. The death of a first child and the young wife going into a coma leads Dylan to many questions.
