This book is a must read. It keeps your attention from beginning to end. You are curious to find out what happens with Michael and Lisa. It also makes you think back to your high school years and you start to take a trip down memory lane. This book touches your spiritual side without being too religious. To sum it up this book is for everyone young and old. Especially, the young they can walk away with a few lessons to learn about life and its spiritual side.

Not your average teen angst!,
By Genie (Washington DC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Twelfth Window (Paperback)
The Twelfth Window is a creative spiritual journey combining the supernatural and a trip down high school memory lane. The characters are refreshingly realistic, mirroring the people most of us knew in high school. While it falls in the category of religious fantasy, it doesn't preach, but instead guides the reader, allowing us to explore theology as the protagonist changes and matures. And the 80's references are just a bonus!

FEEL GOOD READING,
By
This review is from: The Twelfth Window (Paperback)
THE TWELFTH WINDOW WAS SUCH A PLEASURE TO READ! ONCE YOU START READING IT YOU REALLY CANT PUT IT DOWN, IT ENGAGES YOU INTELLECTUALLY AND EMOTIONALLY. ITS A GREAT STORY THAT TAKES YOU ON THE JOURNEY OF A YOUNG WOMAN, LISA, AND HER FRIENDS FROM CHILDHOOD TO ADULTHOOD DISCOVERING THE TRUE MEANING OF LIFE ALONG THE WAY. THIS BOOK GIVES THE READER AN APPRECIATION OF TRUE LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP, WHICH IS DESCRIBED SO BEAUTIFULLY BETWEEN THE CHARACTERS. THE BOOK TRANSPORTS THE READER BETWEEN THE PHYSICAL WORLD AND THE SUPERNATURAL WORLD (SLIGHTLY REMINISCENT OF THE CS LEWIS BOOKS). I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BOOK, IT IS A FUN, FEEL-GOOD READ FOR ALL AGES. THE MESSAGE OF TRUE LOVE, FRIENDSHIP AND GOODNESS IS REFRESHING AND NEEDS TO BE SHARED WITH AS MANY READERS AS POSSIBLE.
