This is one of the best (if not THE best) books I have ever read! I bought this book at airport before a flight because it was smaller and I thought I could fill some time. I ended up reading half the book that first night and read the second half the next night. I’ve always been a fast reader but I didn’t want to put this book down. I desperately wanted to know what would happen to each of these people, and of course, the stranger in the lifeboat. The more you read, the more complex it gets. And not only did it not disappoint, it surpassed my expectations. Whether you are a believer or not, read this book! But I pray you are a believer.
