Lots of information in this book, but it can be a bit difficult to understand. It is a book for study, not for casual reading, but if you put forth the effort needed, you will certainly learn a lot.

Quite a lot of foul language! The essence of this book was interesting and I liked the style it was written in. However, I would not have purchased it had I known how much foul language was in it. The main character does not believe in God and that is mentioned several times as well. The glimpse into the workings of an autistic mind was enlightening, though parts of the book were a bit drawn out and tedious. The ending was quite abrupt and unsatisfying.

This was my first Fern Michaels book and it won't be my last. I love dogs, so their part in the story was delightful. The story itself is a bit far-fetched in several ways, and character development was lacking on a couple characters, but overall it was a fun, lighthearted, funny read. There is a bit of mild language.

Absolutely wonderful series of books! I'm collecting them all in hardback to keep and re-read, which is very unusual for me. The characters are likable and the overall premise of angels among us is fabulously woven into these stories.

Please note that at least some copies with this ISBN number are paperback. You may want to ask before ordering if it matters to you whether it's hardback or paperback.

The perfect beach read! Light-hearted, funny, and easy to read. I liked the way the message of God's love was woven so nicely and effortlessly into the story. It felt genuine, not preachy. The characters were likable and I couldn't help but to wish the best for them. I highly recommend this book!
