I got to go to a pre-release screening of "Love's Abiding Joy." I've read all of the books in the series and I have seen the other three movies, so I was excited when I was invited to go see it.
The story was really, really different from the book. I was expecting it to follow the book, but that was disappointing. There were a bunch of stories intermixed about Missy, Willy and their adopted son Jeff.
The acting was pretty good. Personally I liked January Jones better as Missy than the girl that plays her in this one and in Love's Long Journey. I was really glad that Logan Bartholomew returned as Willy- I know that a lot of people were worried that he wouldn't come back.
The music was a little better. A lot of the same themes as the other three movies, but there was a new theme that I liked a lot.
I hope that the next four movies (if they make them) follow the story better than this one did.
Overall this was okay. I did get kind of bored, and it was really sad.
