Brittany

I absolutely loved this book! It really makes you think about life and makes you wonder and hope that when you make it to Heaven that this is what you could look forward to.

read this book carefully and you will be able to see a treasure beyond the story and the plot. after reading this book, i found it easier to move past some personal bitter experiences. totally worth investing in. moreover, the story is very fast paced, and can be finished in 1-2 sittings.

This book is amazing it keeps you on the edge wanting to keep reading to see what happens next. It makes you wonder who the five people are in your life, that you have touched in some way that you may meet in heaven. (I'm 17 and it's made me feel a way i've never felt before). I reccomend this book to ages 14 and up.
