I met Galen Kindley at Tacoma Mall where he was signing copies of his first book, Hearts of the Morning Calm. As I struggled to hold on to my 20 month old grandson, Galen and I discussed his book. I hesitated to purchase it as it didn't seem like my type of book, but was taken in by his enthusiam and also intrigued by the story. This book was just a wonderful story to read. It left me wishing that the book didn't end. I wanted the story of Jason and Kwang Young to continue on. It is a great blend of humor, romance, history and culture lessons put into a format that keeps the reader interested right to the last page. I recommend it to everyone who likes to read a book and keep feeling good about it. It's not something you will read and forget about right away. Galen Kindley is on to a great start as an author. I can hardly wait for the next book to come out.
