Summary: An Absolute treat!
Review: I am not easily impressed by most books, but Night Whispers is an absolute treat. It's hard to believe this is Jennie's first book because the writing is so accomplished and inviting. The book's concept is equally compelling. Jennie obviously knows and loves God's word and her desire to share her experiences with other women shines right through. I love the way she introduces modern day stories as she leads back to the bible and shares observations that are as relevant today as they were thousands of years ago. The other wonderful thing she does is to give "homework" in such a gentle yet inviting way we want to read and learn more. Thank you, Jeannie for your lovely book.. From the cover to the layout to everything else this is a must read and reread book for women of all ages.

Summary: Genuine Artistry
Review: Remember when you were a kid? The best part of a book was its pictures-the more the better! Pictures tantalized the imagination as we plunged into the stories. In the same way, Jennie Afman Dimkoff's storytelling is absolute artistry. With words she paints biblical stories more vividly than cinema. With strings of thought she weaves connections between that world and ours. As an adult, it's wonderful to rekindle the biblical imagination of my youth all over again. As a seminary student, this one book has enhanced my education--adding living color. As a man, yes a man, "Night Whispers" is more than a book for women. Though written for a female audience, Jennie Dimkoff's biblical narratives contain both a balance of male and female characters and, more importantly, themes that transcend gender. Additionally, its immediate connections to women helped me to better understand women's spiritual struggles. No man lives in a world without women, making it a valuable-read for any man who wants to grow in faith with the women he loves. Regardless of your gender or experience with the Bible, "Night Whispers" will luminously enhance your interaction with the Bible, its stories, and, most importantly, its main character: God.
