Official Review: I'll Point to Heaven by Rhett G. Wintch

[dragonet07]

This book sounds so sweet. It's hard to pass up a good "how-dad-met-mom" kind of story, even during a time as troubling as the Great Depression. I'm a sucker for good historical fiction, too. Thank you for the helpful review.

It's an interesting historical fiction book depicting the importance of family relationships, love and hope.

I'll read a couple chapters of the book before making a final decision on whether I'll be finishing it or not. I like the main concept of the story, though. It seems like an interesting story about family, unity, and a love that lasts forever. We'll see. Regardless, thank you for the review.

Sounds like a truly good book to read given that you saw it fit to give it 4 out of 4 stars. I'll get around to read it.

The synopsis on Amazon was heavy on the religious aspects, but your review did not mention that so I'm wondering if it is overtly religious. I do love historical fiction and it sounds like a great story. It would be a shame to have to pass it up because of it being religious, as I do not read books marked as religion/spirituality. I do thank you for your insight on the book.

How strong is the religious theme in this book? The title gives me a lot of pause. Your review doesn’t seem to touch on that theme, though, so I’m wondering if perhaps it’s not bad enough to keep me from reading.

Always love your significant other you never know when the last day is.

I imagine the losing your husband of many years would be quite lonely when you are 72. I am curious how her parents love-story will help her to deal with the loss of her husband.

I know right he has lived his life will she move on or take Care of her dad?

Great review, Ayisha! This book sounds like it has a lot of depth in character development, and some valuable themes around family values, integrity, and dealing with loss. I don't generally read historical fiction, but I will give any genre a try if done particularly well.

This is not a genre I read so I wil pass. Thanks for the great review!

Am sure the husband of the seventy-two-year-old woman will be about 75. It interests me to know the worry this woman expressed on the death of her husband at that age. I can see this is a long story. Thanks for the review.

Great review! I was interested in reading this book after I read the brief review on Amazon. Getting just a small glimpse of the characters and events inside the book, I knew that I would be adding this book to my "want to read" shelf.

After reading your review, I was able to make a connection to the characters. You were able to bring the characters to life using descriptive words that allowed me to get a feel of each character as well as the events that each one experienced. Sometimes a few illustrative words placed in the right spot can achieve more than a lot of useless words that does not personify the characters. Your review is full of detailed information that allows the reader to make a connection to the characters as well as the events in their lives. This is definitely a book that I will be reading very soon.

This sounds like a book that most people could relate to. I am excited to get my hands on it. Thank you for the review.

I was so touch by the book. I like the way the author conveyed the message, the need for family to live in harmony and unity.
