Carry the Moon Across the Sky by Jillian Rose is about love, loss, and awakening. It’s a story about Selena, a pretty, intelligent woman who fell in love in the most peculiar circumstances. She met Arun while mourning the loss of her beloved dog, Amelia. Their meeting brought a strange combination of events and deep feelings that made this story one of a kind. The book talks about Selena’s profound experience of love that exposed her to magical connections and perceptions. Her passion for Arun was extraordinary, the kind that changed who she was and how she understood life.

It was to be a typical meeting about work that united the two perfect mirror-souls. The love that she discovered filled her heart, soul, and the entire world around her. However, Selena and Arun had contrasting personalities, and situations wouldn’t let them be together for long. During the three years of separation, all Selena could think about was Arun. In her quest to move on, she found Justin. A gentle, loving companion who would do anything to make her happy. Would Justin’s love help her move on? What was it that so strongly connected her to Arun?

I did not expect to discover how deep the knowledge about fear is. The author eloquently explained how delicately she finds logic amid fear, differentiates love from infatuation, and avoids hate to grow spiritually. The book’s structure and flow are impeccable, with well-developed characters anyone can root for, particularly Justin. I tried to look for flaws in the thought processes regarding the characters' actions, but I found none. The words used were utilized fully at a functional level and explained the situations and the feelings perfectly.

This book contains some adult scenes, so I would not recommend it to younger readers. However, young adults can learn a lot, particularly those interested in spiritual awakening through mindful meditation and ethereal or intuitive experiences as guidance through life. There is nothing to dislike about this book. I found it very interesting, informative, and spiritually provoking. From the first person's point of view, the author managed a straightforward narrative that is emotionally moving and full of suspense. I loved how the author took the time to explain every feeling logically and relate it to what she believes is right or wrong.

I would rate Carry the Moon Across the Sky by Jillian Rose 4 out of 4 stars because it is professionally edited, as I only found three minor errors.

Thank you for your review. I don't usually like enjoy romance novels, but it sounds like some of the author's philosophies and beliefs would be interesting.
