Quite a unique title and story line. To get a not so typical description of heaven is another interesting point.

The novel is great. It's really nice and interesting by turning the popular opinion about angels and heaven

This book sounds interesting because it throws in some uniqueness of what we would picture heaven as. I can’t wait to read this one!!

I like the concept of heaven and angels watching over the earth in the book. It gives a little sense at belonging and security to individuals. Thanks for the review.

I really liked your review and now I want to read this book. I'm surprised a bit by how short the book is, but as I read it I may understand why it isn't any longer. Thank you so much for your good review!

Really interesting Book you've read there. I must try reading it as well seems interesting from your point of view. Amazing writing and capture your moment. Sometimes reading really get your mind lost with the book and that's when fantasy start to happen without us knowing. It's all in our mind. Really enjoy reading your review about the book!

Thanks for this review! After reading the book I couldn't agree more. I was not enthusiastic to try this book but was very pleasantly surprised. It just sort of sucked me in even though it's not my normal genre. I appreciated how relatable the author made the characters (both angel and human)! I'm actually hoping there is a sequel.

Thank you for the review! I am hesitant about stories that have a potentially "cheesy"premise, but the way you describe it, it sounds like it deals with the topic in a unique and well-written way. I am adding it to my bookshelf!
