Tears….

….but totally worth it. Very sweet and tender book, as I’ve found each of the other books by him that I’ve read.

Challenging Time Challenging Book

I listened to this book very shortly after loosing my mother, suddenly and unexpectedly. So, it was a challenging book to read. I think anytime you read someone's interpretation of how death works -- I think that you can get caught up in measuring every word, every interpretation, every point of doctrine. I found that it was much easier to open myself up to the ways in which healing can come from unexpected sources.

I especially enjoyed learning about life on an apple orchard. And, I could recognize in the story some of the universality of loss and grief.

However, that said, I found the device that Mr. Wright used in the cross gardener a little too distracting. I think the author was well-intentioned and I appreciated the uplifting tone, but this isn't a book I could recommend without reservations.

Inspiring

An inspiring story that will make you look at your life and wish for all that is possible. It will make you feel good and make you cry. What a blessing that we have those authors like Jason F Wright that can write books to inspire, no bad language or things in them that make you feel less than human.

Everyone has a cross to bare

This book was very well written, easy to understand and heartfelt. I listened to it twice and cried both times. I lost a very young son and it took me many years of sadness and sorrow to overcome but I had other children to live for.

A beautiful book!

I loved this book...anyone who has lost a loved one will be comforted by this loving story..read it.

Fabulous

Best book I’ve listened to in a long time. It was well worth the time.

Outstanding!

I absolutely loved this book. I literally couldn’t stop listening. Beautifully written and the narration was excellent. I highly recommend it!
