The book has an interesting scientific cum religious tinge. I liked the idea of near-death experience discussed in a metaphorical manner. The review was really engaging. Good work.

I am excited to read this one. The eye on the cover does justice to the story as it can be associated with Leah opening her eye and believing in God. It can also be portrayed as a path to the soul. Thank you for a detailed review.

I am on the fence about this book. I don't read many religious type books. While it may not be totally stemmed in religion, it does seem to hit on it quite a bit.

As much as I enjoy reading light books for pleasure, I definitely prefer books that provoke deep thought. This book certainly seems to do that.
It is also my opinion that promoting a simple concept like love and selflessness comes at a cost. I'm interested in the perspective of the author Avam Hale. This is a very well-written and thorough review.

The proposal to challenge the reader is quite an innovative idea. This book presents a rather profound and unexpected premise. It's certainly a surprise and the cover doesn't do it justice. Thank you for this review, this is a story I want to read more of.

The eye on the cover looks surreal and intimidating. The book may not promote any religious affiliation, but it does promote being a theist or a believer of God. I will definitely check this one out.

It's great that the author explored his ideas on religion and the concept of belief in fiction. I bbelieve it answers some questions for him and for many people who read this book.
Your review provides a clear overview of the book. Great job!

I like the fact that despite of having social, political, and physiological ideas this book is still a light read. Thank you for the review

I like how the book's title is made into a question. I hope I will find "The Message" while reading. Thanks for the review. I am interested to know about Leah Warner's life-changing experience and the message along with it. Congrats on the BOTD!
