This was definitley one of the best books that I have ever read! I really not a "GOD" person, and I surprised that I even picked up the book in the first place, but I am so glad I did. If I hadn't, I would have missed one of the very best books I have ever read. The whole story is amazing, and I just loved it. I couldn't put it down, it was so good. And I am not lying, I really loved this book. I had a few questions after I read it, but every good book does that to you. The setting and Charity were perfect, and it is the ideal thing that everyone loves. Adrianne was what the town needed to bring out what they thought about people and things about God. I would recommended this book to anyone, religoius or not.

When I saw this novel in the bookstore, I didn't even read the back cover to see what it was about. But when I read it, I found myself glued to the thing. A strange sort of coming of age story, but it challenges the thought process of the entire town. I would recommend this book to anybody, especially those not sure about God and/or those who find humor in the extremes.

I just finished this one. WOW! I couldn't put it down. Han Nolan is one of the best writers I have ever read. All her books are just as great as this one. I can't wait 'till she writes another!

The small town of Casper, Alabama is a happily quiet town where everyone knows everybody's business and no one seems to care what happens. But when Adrienne Dabney from New York moves in things get really shaken up. You see Adrienne is an artist and when she decides to do an `artists' fast where she doesn't eat for a month the local priest objects because he wants none of that East Coast hocus-pocus witch craft and sinning happening in his city. But Adrienne decides to do her fast anyways. A month later when she finally emerges from her home she brings the news that she has seen Jesus. This news brings an uproar and the people will be forever changed. This is a pretty good book!

Send Me Down A Miracle is the second book of Han Nolan's that I've read. Both of which have been fabulous. This book shows that relgion is a big part of what kind of person you are. Especially if your father is a Reverand, like Charity's is. When Adrianne comes to Kasper from NYC, Charity's entire point of view changes. She feels that Adrianne and anything she does is right and that G*d and her father are wrong. Everything changes after Adrianne annouces her vision of the Jesus chair. Now Charity doesn't know what to think. Her father is forcing her in one direction while her heart wants to go in the other. Send Me Down A Miracle is an amazing story of a girl who wants to do something for herself for a first. If you are religious or not, this book is still a great read.

This is my favorite alot of young girls can relate to this book ecspecially me with my best friends dad being a preacher! It is hillarious and frighetningly sad at the same time! I love it!

I enjoyed this book very much. It started off slow in the beginning, but then after a while it started to pick up. You can learn a lot from books and this is one that really does make you think about you, your family, religion, townspeople, and even your preacher. It taught a lot of lessons. I thought a lot about this book after I got done reading it and there are several things that still throw me off, but that's the joy about books, making your own opinion and own feelings. I highly recommend this to anyone.

I bought this book for my 15 year old daughter.She loved it read it in 2 days.I also read it and enjoyed it also.We have enjoyed all Han Nolan,s books so far.Keep you wanting to read more.

The whole point of the book, I guess, is that adults are fallible. That's the story: Charity realizing that. While I don't much like her father (he beats her) I guess I can see that Charity loves him, and he, her. As an atheist, I found it kind of amusing the way people prayed and flocked to the Jesus chair. Though the thing with Mad Joe and Vonnie and Velita was incredibly sad. While some of the characters seemed stereotyped -- Charity's dad the hell-raising Southern preacher, for instance -- I thought it was a really good book. Han Nolan's one of my favorite authors and I hope she keeps churning out works like this for decades to come.
