I received this book as a Goodreads first-reads winner.
I requested to read it book because I was interested in how the biblical story of Jonah would be transferred into a modern story. After finishing the book, I don't feel like it really achieved that end. The main character is named Jonah and he has some strange visions that he eventually determines can only have been sent by God but I really didn't feel like there were any other parallels to the biblical story. The book is pretty good and held my interest but maybe largely because I wanted to see how it would end. For me, the end was kind of scattered. Maybe I wold have enjoyed this more if I had just read it as a story and not expected more.
