Re: Review by Alynn Posers of The Message?, by Avam Hale.
It's nice to read a review that is not judgmental of anyone's position regarding religion. I especially like your comment about "hmmmm"... moments. This nicely captures the feeling I had while reading the online book sample. Thank you for a review that makes me want to read the book.

I am really struck by the review, I can't wait to read more on how Leah warner a widower, continued with life.
The preview is touching in its slightest effort.

That cover is pretty similar to N.R Walker's EVOLVED and I thought it will be a sci-fi with robots at first. Your review corrected me. By the way, your review is very informative! Though I am not sure if my brain could easily process a story that tackles religion, philosophy, and science all in one book.

Hmmm... I appreciate your detailed review, but I find the book a bit confusing. After reading the sample, I still do not find a certain label I could attach to it. Maybe this was the author's intention, after all. I think Avam Hale could make for a great writer, but he needs help with the often excessive plunge into a certain topic with many unnecessary details that spoil the pleasure of reading. See, for example, the much too specific medical terminoloy and the extensive medical descriptions at the beginning of the first chapter. Besides, the book does not stir any emotions or feelings. The author is too detached and analytical.

A story about a woman who is injured badly in a tragic road accident but miraculously gets healed and thus believes that God exists. It is also great to note that Dr. Marcus believes also in God despite relying on science to treat people. This really seems an intriguing read.

Thanks for the informative review. This truly seems like an interesting read of a woman whose simple message becomes so much more as it spreads. I will add this book to my Want to Read shelf

I also was a little creeped out by the cover. But I couldn't find a better image. And when I hired some professional graphic designers to find me one they ultimately agreed that they couldn't come up with one either.

The eyes are a tunnel to the soul and this book is very much about the soul - well, not the soul, per se - but how we look at life and interpret reality.

It's not creepy. I assure you that. It's not paranormal. It's simply everyday life with the insertion of extraordinary, but not sci-fi, events. Everyday stuff - a little stretch - to make you think and be entertained.

In short, this is one book I hope you won't judge just by it's cover.

That's certainly understandable! I'm trying to make a mock cover for my WIP and even that is a struggle.
Congratulations on Book of the Day! It seems to me that your book encourages people to look at their own lives and beliefs, which is always something I support.

In the sample, I got hints of religion and philosophy. I'm interested to see where the story goes from here. Thanks for a terrific review!

I think this book looks interesting, especially since the main character has to deal with the ramifications of being a "messenger of God" without having an affiliation to any specific religious group. I think I'll give this one a read! Thank you for your review.

As much as I do believe in God, I usually avoid these kinds of books. I am very picky when it comes to reading about spirituality, or the likes. I don't think I will be reading this book. Thank you for the review.

the theme sounds good. I read few pages of the sample and found it an interesting effort.

[maggiechap]

OMG this looks like a fantastic, deep story I can get behind. I can't wait for it to be the BOTM!!

[desantismt_17]

This sounds like a deep and challenging read with a message the world really needs to hear. Looks like a good book.

[Manang Muyang]

I am Catholic. I believe in God. I believe God loves us immensely and unconditionally. I believe He wants us to experience this love and share it with others. What a wonderful world we would have if everyone acted in a loving way! I hope we all get The Message and pass it on and like Leah, be reborn.

The book sounds quite interesting.. Especially "the god"and "the messenger of god ".The plot has its own uniqueness..As least after reading the review it is a must read for me..Thanks for the review.
