This is a very moving novel about a family's struggle to deal with the loss of two children at the hands of a schizophrenic man.

This was a good book about a girl's struggle with tragedy in her life. There was a really heavy emphasis on Mormon religion, which for me just made the story more authentic and interesting, but it might put some people off. Overall, I enjoyed it.

Excellent book! I think that anyone that has lost a loved one to violence will learn something new about forgiveness. This was a very touching book.

WOW--very in depth about feelings and how the Mormon church affects its members. Very well written--especially for not being written by a Mormon. Could NOT put it down!

A very good book, with a powerful story. It fell a little flat at a few points, and so wasn't perfect, but was still well worth reading. It's a good powerful story about grief, tragedy, and forgiveness. Veronica is a believable narrator, and lets you feel her pain as she tells her story. Definitely worth the time spent reading it.
