oh my goodness this book is masterpiece. I've genuinely grown in my faith through reading this story, it paints a vibrant picture of all of us. we struggle with separating ourselves from our sinful past, and the shame that comes along with it. we run from God, but he never stops loving and chasing after us.

Book was unnecessarily long. But, the reaction ( positive or negative) is strong. It’s brings emotion out.
