A Review. Life Everlasting by Robert Whitlow



This is the second part of a story about a lawyer Alexia and a client Rena whose husband has been injured falling off a cliff. I had read the previous novel, Life Support, so I had no trouble picking up the story and being familiar with the characters. Without reading Life Support first, it could be very confusing.

The story is never short of surprises, right to the end, and never drags at all. I enjoyed Life Support, and found Life Everlasting even better. It’s a thoroughly good yarn with lots of action, some social comment and a little romance. Robert also manages to weave a spiritual theme through the plot which is a significant part of the story.

Life Everlasting was a book I found hard to put down and I was sorry when it finished. I’m actually hoping there will be a sequel.

A Review Heaven is For Real by Todd Burpo with Lynn Vincent



This book is the story of a four year old boy who apparently went to heaven during an operation. Not only does the book tell of his experience, but also the story of the whole family as they go through the drama of Colson’s illness and the affect of his disclosures about heaven.

I was interested to see if his experience lined up with what I thought heaven would be like and the references in the bible to such a place. I was a little sceptical, but found the book to be plausible and thought provoking. It would be hard to read this book without it having some effect on you, whether you believe in heaven or not. If you do it will be very enlightening and if you don’t, then you might find yourself considering a change of mind. It’s an easy book to read, very touching and informative.
