Very real characters, I like how it's set in the same house as The Pilot's Wife.

Unexpected twists and turns. Made me want to read it again to catch the clues I apparently missed in the first time through.

Well written, but discriptive about the setting instead of the people.

It's very moving and uplifting. This book helps you to understand why a relationship with God is so important and explains very well that God doesn't punish people for sins real or imagined. For the people who think it humanizes God, I think in this instance, a humanized God, Jesus and Holy Spirit are just what the main character needs, otherwise his journey wouldn't have been accomplished.
