Book Review Monday (a day late)

This week i am reviewing a book called- Miracles For Michael by Joann Arnold.

Synopsis:

A terrible accident in a strange town leaves nine-year-old Michael Downing alone and his mother hospitalized in a coma. Social workers place him under the charge of two women--Harley-riding Samantha Porter and her spinster sister, Hannah Allen.
As they care for him, Michael visits his mother each day in the hospital, singing and reading to her, and his spirit touches the town in maraculous ways.
When his unloving grandparents try to take custody of young Michael, his local caregivers resist them in court and help to shape Michael's future in a series of events that climax on a wonderful, life-changing Christmas day.


This book was so wonderful and touching! it made me bawl! my heart went out to michael and i cant even begin to imagine how hard it would be to go through the trials that he had to got through. you just feel so bad for him! but it does have a happy ending! Not only do the women he goes to live with help him, he helps them just as much. This book was very well written and easy to follow. i could not put it down! which is a good sign for me. Although the book was a little more geared towards the LDS religion, i would recommend it to anyone because really there wasn't too much religiousness in it. I give this book a 9 out of 10. it was fabulous!


The book I am going to be reviewing next week is PS I love you by Cecila Ahern, for any of those who want to read it. I reviewed a book by her already and this one has a movie to go along with it. i am going to have to watch it again before next week because i havent seen it in so long. i will let you know what i think of the movie as well!
