Bob Van Laerhoven hits us with ten deep stories set in wartorn regions and times with Scars of the Heart! We follow ten different individuals set across different times and places ranging from Nazi Germany, to the Middle East, to Congo, as they struggle with the darkness and pain of war. Van Laerhoven powerfully hits home the effects of war and masterfully shows us the darker side of love and passion through these individual stories! It was really nice to take a look at the smaller lives effected by the bigger picture, and this book often leaves you reeling with big emotions. This is one of those books that sticks with you and makes you think, but beyond that makes you really feel. If you’re looking for a more emotional and philosophical look at humanity and our relationship with war, definitely come explore Scars of the Heart!
