This is actually a pretty good book and an easy read. The theme of this story is about a Christian who survives a car crash that nearly kills him. The suthor often travels to local churches to tell about this crash and how he saw heaven. If you are a Christian you will probably enjoy this book. Others will think that because his brain was putting him into a coma due to all the pain he was in due to truma. Even if it's true, why not?

If you like Robin Hatcher's books you will like this book. It's a short read. Can be read in a few hours. It's about a young couple in 1969 who marry and drop out of College because they cannot do both. The wife is a gifted singer who could be a professional. Her husband is from a famous family that runs a super store like Macy's and is becoming like his father and g/father a work alocholic. How does God work with them. Read it to find out.

This book was weeded out of my Church Library to make room for the new titles by Denise Hunter. Sorry it's been years since read his book I don't remember the story anymore. The only mark on the book is a call number so I can shelve the book.

Nice page turner. Somewhat spooky. Kind of reminds me of the TV show lost somewhat. This book was in our Church library. I have limited space. This book was removed to make room for "iver Dance" and "Silent Pledge" by the same author.I am using "glue off" to remove the label on the spine of the book for the library.

Review Date: 9/6/2010


This story must have been one of Barbara's eariler writings because it can't hold a candle to what she writes now. It would have been better if all the sex scenes were deleted. Barbara why not update this book and delete most of the sex out of it.Develp the characters. Sex was too much and too graphic. If you like her books such as "While my Sister Sleeps", or "Not my Daughter" forget this book. If you like a lot of graphic sex go for it. I was very disappointed. The Characters were not developed well. I skipped the sex after awhile. I'd rather read about well developed characters such as "A Women Betrayed".

First Women: The Grace and Power of America's Modern First Ladies
Review Date: 9/19/2020


I learned a lot about what is expected of First Ladies. How the 20c first ladies found it hard to live up to Jackie Kennedy's prestige. They couldn't. Hillary and Michelle found the job description of what is expected of the FL to be out of touch with the 21c. They changed the expectations.

This book was really good. Reminded me of the old Rod Searling show the Twelight Zone. I could not put the book down. The lady ends up in this town with no ID and strange things begin to happen to her. No one seems to know who she is and if they do they pretend not to know her. This book is a page turner.
