Sons of Blackbird Mountain A Blackbird Mountain Novel Joanne Bischof Books

This book has everything I've come to expect from a Joanna Bischof novel. Redemption, with gentleman truth, hope, and mercy. The entire story was enchanting. I loved the bond between brothers, the decided differences and similarities between Jordan, Thor, and Haakon. But it was Thor that stole the pages of my heart with his quiet, yet thunderous way. I love that he was written deaf. It was the main quality that made him so understanding. His Norwegian (and therefore Viking) ancestory have him his braw and ferocity. His faith gave him his quiet courage and the strength to overcome an addiction as damaging as the pain he desperately wanted freed from. His charm bonded Aven's heart to his own that made me smile, and at times feel his ache. It was very rewarding to the parts of the novel written from his perspective, giving the story a depth and of character all its own.

I loved Aven's gentleman spirit, and the way she loved each person that called Norgaard farm home in a way that revealed more about the characters.

More than once I found myself wishing I was burn at such a time, living such a life, having such a love.

Another book to add to my "favorites" shelf. I highly anticipate the sequel.

Sons of Blackbird Mountain A Blackbird Mountain Novel Joanne Bischof Books Reviews

I rarely leave reviews but I felt like if I did not review this novel I would be doing a huge disservice to any potential readers, the novel, and to the author.

It’s rare to find a novel that touches me so deeply. I have read hundreds of books in my life and so very many of them were good, even great. They made me smile and she’s a tear, laugh out loud, and recommend it to someone else. Sons of Blackbird is so much more than that. I felt in my heart the fear and determination of Aven. Thor’s torture as he struggled with his addiction and his pure love for Aven. Not born out of lust but out of something so much deeper and lasting. I felt Haakon’s brokenness in the pit of my stomach and the lasting effects of what that brokenness did to him. The characters became a part of me. I felt like I knew them. That I would gladly pick apples in Thor’s orchard and have a heart to heart with Ida or Aven. The imagery this novel creates is of beauty and the ugly that hides in it but how light can help to heal that ugly. It speaks of the Grace of God who lives His children and longs for us to make the right choices but He is quick to forgive and lavish His love upon us. I can’t recommend this book enough! Please, if you have even the slightest interest in reading this book, go for it. You won’t be disappointed. My only regret is that I devoured it so quickly and have to wait for several months from rather next book!
4.5 stars

"Apparently the lad hadn't the gift of gab."

No, he didn't. In fact Thor Norgaard's vocabulary was severely limited to signs formed using the fingers of his massive hands, but that in no way meant that he could not effectively communicate with a turn of his head or an expression in his eyes. Meeting Aven Norgaard walking up his mountain lane, seemed almost like an apparition, after having considered the photo of his dead cousin's wife for so long. But what could he possibly offer her that his passionate, impulsive, younger brother couldn't offer her sooner? More importantly, Thor had demons to quell.

Aven Norgaard arrives at Blackbird Mountain on foot, admiring its vast, lovely acres of orchards and sensing more plentiful abundance than she could have ever imagined. However, she was quite shocked to learn that Aunt Dorothe's three "boys" were actually grown men who made quite a profitable income off the hard cider they brewed on the family's farm. Sadly, she was also informed of Dorothe's recent passing. What to do now; stay on the mountain or seek employment elsewhere? One, and only one, of the handsome brothers can solidify that decision.

"She'd always heard him because she knew how to listen." A more symphonic romance has barely been penned, as readers hear Aven and Thor bare their souls without saying a word.
5 stars- This had to be one of my favorite books so far this year. Joanne’s books get better and better. The depth of each of the characters in this story was amazing. Sometimes you read a story and you just instantly connect with the characters. They seem as though they are real people. This was just such a story for me. Plus, how could you not fall head over heels for Thor? Each character is unique and carries their own story of pain and their struggles to make the most of the life God has given them. From the first introduction of the Norgaard Brothers you get an instant understanding of the character of each and their place in the family. My heart ached for both Haakon and Thor in so many different ways. They are two extremely different brothers that long to be loved and accepted. And Aven is also an amazing woman. In fact, this story is full of amazing women.
I loved reading the story from Thor’s perspective. I applaud the author for introducing us to a deaf character & bringing the hearing world into Thor’s silent one. The author did an amazing job trying to capture life through his eyes. He was able to pick up on things that others missed because he relied on his sense of sight instead of hearing. This allowed him to read more deeply into the true feelings of those around him.
This is a heart wrenching story that you will want to keep reading late into the night. I cannot wait to read the next story in this series & find out what happens next.
I received a copy of this book for free. I was not required to post a positive review and the views and opinions expressed are my own.
