Customer Reviews
The universe moves in mysterious ways
I really enjoyed this well written book of twists and turns. It left a warm feeling of hope.
A Book to Get Lost In
Beautifully written. The story is intriguing, but it is also the descriptions of people and place that make you care about what happens. I’ve already been recommending it to friends.
Slow
Slow and undefined. Could not get into the story at all.
Gave up.
