    Easy, fast, light, heartwarming. Tends towards long winded and the cluelessness of the characters gets frustratingly unbelievable a few times, but maybe that’s the point. Tova, one of the main characters, is about as likable as they come.
  • Van Pelt’s first book will have you wanting more.

    A must read that will keep you turning the page. Great plot, loved the characters and the ending was well thought out. I hope we see another book from Shelby Van Pelt in the future.

    Found this book very slow, initially very disjointed and then fairly obvious ending. Style appears to strive for Fredric Bachman but misses the mark. Just boring.

    Nothing about this book was what I expected. Beautifully structured and written. The characters were so real, I wanted to bring them home! Like nothing I’ve ever read. Heartwarming without being schmaltzy so many twists as it unfolded. Couldn’t put it down.
  • So shines a good deed in a weary world
