Book Review: Everything I Hope For

Everything I Hope For is a young adult late 20th century historical fiction by Cinda Gault. Although it is difficult for me to believe that 1970s is now historical, Cinda does an excellent job thrusting us into the world of Jesus Freaks and hippies.

In this coming of age story, we meet Belinda who is a senior in high school who has always been a good student and honest with her parents - especially her open-minded mother. But as her parents' relationship disintegrates and Belinda begins dating, everything she thought to be true about her relationship with her mother turns upside down. At seventeen, she finds herself on her own and making adult choices she's not quite ready to make.

We watch as she navigates familial bonds, romance, lust, friendship, higher education, finding a job, and true love. Throughout it all, Belinda is simply hoping to find what she's always wanted - to be accepted for who she is and to be allowed to grow and become.

I enjoyed this book and think you will too!
