My Review:                                                                                                                                             "Into a Silent World" by Carmina Edwards is the second book in the  (World Cracked Open) series.  "Into a Silent World"picks up where" A Door Cracked Open " ended.  " Into A Silent World" is Amy's story about what she thought was to be her life calling. This story was easy to read and follow and didn't really require much thought, but it was truly an eye opening story into what happens before a women becomes a nun. I don't know much about the Catholic faith, but I now know that there are different orders that has different rules.  I am looking forward to reading book 3 of the series.  I  thoroughly enjoyed reading Carmina's story.  Some of the scenes made me rejoiced with Amy( a visit with a certain person,) because her faith in God paid off and when she was ill a couple of times I was reading intensely because I had to know the outcome. If I had a complaint about this series it would be that I would rather read all the stories at once instead of in separate books. I am giving  "Into a Silent World" four stars.  I was given a complimentary copy by the author and Celebrate Lit. These opinions are my own. 

About the Author

222938_1045001648055_1316040273_30132258_9921_n[1]I am a mother of two wonderful grown up children and currently living in the UK, after living in Sweden for three years where I wrote my first book, “A Door Cracked Open.” I was blessed to be able to spend six months in USA before returning to the UK, my home country, to work with my editor in California on the edits of this book and visit friends.
I am an avid reader and linguist, having also spent some years living in France and have been fortunate enough to have taught Swedish and French over twenty-five years and translate for businesses and manuscripts in both languages. Being unemployed the past few years, has led to me becoming homeless. However, I never give up hope. As I try to portray in my books, God has always had His hand on me. Once again, He has stepped in right at the last minute. I now have a new job in Sweden and will be moving back there. Because I feel passionately about helping the homeless, a large percentage of my royalties will go directly to them.

Guest Post from Carmina Edwards

“Into a Silent World” follows on from Amy’s story in “A Door Cracked Open.”
With a new beginning ahead of her, a long standing dream about to be realized, she was unprepared for the events which were about to unfold over the next two years.
Why would God send her to this place of “absolute conviction” and allow her to remain there for that long, if He never meant for her to be there? Amy struggles to understand and seeks His will, but determined that it was His plan, she persevered in order for her dream to be fulfilled.
