Review:Great book to help little one's understand heaven and what it is believed to be. I'm not a religious person and not really sure that I believe in heaven and hell and God and all that, but even I enjoyed reading this to my 3 year old while my father in law (her grandfather, obviously) was dying. After his passing, she really took to this book as well as a couple others that were equally "enjoyable" and great learning tools for little minds. Read more

Review:I really enjoyed this story. It was quaint and an easy read while waiting for the doctor. I also like that it had an ending and you did not have to read the others in order to understand this story. Read more

Review:Sometimes there are those novels that take the reader into a different time and place in history so well that they lose themselves in the present day and find themselves transported back in time. Jody Hedlund does such an exceptional job at that, through her research in her latest Orphan Train series and the first novel, With You Always. You can help but cheer for the underdog, hope the plans for the wicked are exposed and that true love always finds a way, and you will get all three by the clos... Read more

Review:Really enjoyed this book. It was banned by some school districts in my state, which is why my book club decided to read it. It was well written and I cared about the main character a great deal as I read her story. Read more

Review:So, I probably should have read the reviews, because I didn't realize this book was religious and that's not our family's thing. The general message of the book is good but I wish it didn't use words like "Lord" and "worship." I am fine with the Christmas story and think that's important and the message of giving is better than recieiving and the real meaning of Christmas but I think there are ways to do that with a more secular tone.

Review:I thought it would be impossible to love Remy more than I already did.....but this book proved me wrong!! He truly is an amazing character....

I cannot thank Katy Evans enough for giving us Remy's pov. I usually avoid the books rewritten in the 2nd person's pov...they tend to let me down. This was not the case with Remy. Being in his head was like reading it for the first time.

The characters are amazing and impeccably written, and I found myself trying to slow down my reading, bec... Read more
