About the Book
Book: The Pages of Her Life
Author: James L. Rubart
Genre: Christian fiction – suspense
Release Date: May 21, 2019
Award-winning and bestselling author James L. Rubart explores the way our memories shape us . . . and how they affect our beliefs.
Allison Moore has no idea why she got out of her car on that rainy March afternoon and picked up the soaked journal laying on the side of the road. Brought it home. But she did. It was empty. Except for two lines scrawled in the front, too washed out to read. And a Jesus emblem inside the back cover. Something about the journal compels her to start writing in it, capturing thoughts about her newly acquired job that she thought would be heaven, but has turned into hell. Then one day, she finds words in the center of the journal. Words she didn’t write: Mene mene tekel upharsin. After her heart stops hammering, Allison Googles the phrase, and reads the story of Belshazzar’s Feast, where a hand from God writes on the wall, and the king is slain. Fear grips her, certain God is coming after her for what she did twelve years back. What she’s done wrong her whole life. She vows to make things right. Then she discovers more phrases appearing underneath each of her journal entries. Those phrases take her on an emotional roller coaster that forces her to look at everything she believes about her past in a new light, and opens her eyes to a supernatural realm of staggering consequence.

"The Pages of Her Life" by James L. Rubart is a story that I really wish was true. I would like to find a journal like Allison Moore did. I would love to write in my journal and have the negative thoughts changed into positive words.
The other thing I didn't like about this novel was the use of the mild curse words, pissing me off, pissed off and screw and screwed and hell. Yes, I know they don't brother some readers but I personally don't like any curse words in my reading but I still am giving the book five stars and recommend it to anyone that wants to be reminder that life can be better if we are only true to ourselves and be who we are meant to be.
I would really like a series based on this plot. I know the rest of the novels might be anti-climax because we would know what the journal does but there could be plenty of stories, because people of all races and generations have things that need to be solved and worked out.
This is my first book by James L. Rubart , but I have plans to read his other books.
