This book changed my life for the better the very first time that I read it. It changes my life each time I re-read it as well, because it reminds me just how much God loves me. This is still my favorite book of all time. I've read it more than a few times as well. Each time I set a goal to read thru it without getting emotional at all about it, but I just cannot do it. Might have something to do with the fact that I have two daughters, I'm thinkin'...
In regards to all these comments about how people think this book is blasphemous, it is possible to read this book and still believe in the ultimate power of God, and so forth. I don't think the author is trying to make a point that he believes that God is just a man (or woman) or anything like that. I think he makes God's character the way it is in the book to get the reader to see their relationship with God from a different, and possibly more personal point of view. Just my two cents though, and what do I know? Nothing, lol.
I really enjoyed this one. I liked how it ended and Finn wasn't a completely evil guy that deserved to be hated by the readers, etc. I really enjoyed the questions about fate and how it works or maybe doesn't always work out in our best favor...stories like this provide my mind with countless hours of free entertainment and pondering.
I would give this a rating of 4.5 stars. Although some of these reviews seem to be onto something when they say that nothing really happens, I found that not know the next part of their master plan kept me reading. Call me a sucker but I cared a lot as to what was going to happen between Sara and Mac and if they would actually make it or not. One thing I do know is that I wish DeMille would write another book with the same awesome characters.
