Review:

This is the first book I have read from this author. I am not sure if it is her first book or now but it is not published by a brand name publishing company. I know some people don't like books if they are self-publish, but I think everyone should give this book a try.

It is a small book with a lot of heart. This book flowed really quick for me and I finished it in one day. You could really feel with the characters, when they were sad you were sad, etc.

It had a great message about a man who turned his back on God and tries with all his might not to believe God is real. His struggle hurts not only himself but those around him and he learns that you can never really run from God because he is always there.

Lynn McMonigal wrote believable characters in a hard situation and done it with great style. I even learned a few things about premature babies in the process. :) She gets 4stars from me.
