"I put off reading this book for so long, and after reading it, I couldn't tell you why. I really enjoyed it. I was different for me by the topic of spirits and the after-life, but was put together in such a way that wouldn't offend or put anyone off. "

" Not the best book I have ever read but not the worst. It became a bit too sappy for my taste but I pushed through and was rewarded with a cute ending. Not a book I would grab again but not badly executed. "

" It was okay, it wasn't one of those books that keeps me thinking even after it's done. In all truth, it was really the kind of book, you finished just to finish, I mean half way through you know what is going to happen. It wasn't what I thought it would be like. "

" At times difficult to understand but over all a very good story. Super well written and a wonderful example of holding on but learning to live the life you're given and let go. "
