After I finished reading this book I felt that I had no more answers than when I had begun.....then I realized that I was trying to read it as an answer to "why" "why do things happen to good people??"
For someone who does not have a sense of what God does for those who love Him this book would help with that answer, for He comes to us to provide comfort to know that we are not alone through our trials. The Bible says that the rain falls on the just and the unjust. As the book states, we don't know the why....but when we reach out to God we will know that He is there.
Kushner's book "Living a Life that Matters" is one of my very favorite books. "When Bad Things Happen to Good People" falls somewhat short of that....but maybe it was my expectation of the book which was at fault.
I would recommend this book to someone who is wondering why you would need God in your life.
