"I personally enjoyed the deep emotions that can feel with the characters throughout the entire book. The story is so simple but a powerful reminder of the story of Jonah through a modern lense. I appreciated the main character not knowing what to do "

"Thank you to bookSirens and the publisher for providing me a free copy of this book for my voluntary review.
I didn't know what to expect and it was read quickly. I think it is a message from a piece of the Bible. It is the story from the book of Jona" Read more of this review » |

"Most of the time, none of us like being told what to do, especially when we really don’t have a heart for it. This is clear in the Bible story of Jonah, who is told by God to preach a message of repentance to the people of Nineveh, who then have the "

Okay, my jaw dropped! I kept forgetting it was a Jonah retelling, so when (somewhat devastating) things happened, the story kept blowing me away. Even if you keep in mind the context, some things were still shocking. I couldn't put this book down, and ...more |

“The most magical of nights had slid into the most extraordinary dawn. The dark sky lightened from navy into a palette of pastels, and they’d watched as the approaching sun swallowed the stars. Then they’d fallen asleep wrapped in each other’s arms.”

“I'm beginning to think holding your hand might be far more terrifying than being lost in the dark.”

“Like Icarus,
I escape imprisonment with wax-coated wings,
I rise high, then crash and burn
trying to fly too close to the sun.”

“The moon is a loyal companion.
It never leaves. It’s always there, watching, steadfast, knowing us in our light and dark moments, changing forever just as we do. Every day it’s a different version of itself. Sometimes weak and wan, sometimes strong and full of light. The moon understands what it means to be human.
Uncertain. Alone. Cratered by imperfections.”

“Words, I think, are such unpredictable creatures.
No gun, no sword, no army or king will ever be more powerful than a sentence. Swords may cut and kill, but words will stab and stay, burying themselves in our bones to become corpses we carry into the future, all the time digging and failing to rip their skeletons from our flesh.”

“I want to be the friend you fall hopelessly in love with. The one you take into your arms and into your bed and into the private world you keep trapped in your head. I want to be that kind of friend. The one who will memorize the things you say as well as the shape of your lips when you say them. I want to know every curve, every freckle, every shiver of your body.
I want to know where to touch you, I want to know how to touch you. I want to know convince you to design a smile just for me. Yes, I do want to be your friend. I want to be your best friend in the entire world.”

“Hope is hugging me, holding me in its arms, wiping away my tears and telling me that today and tomorrow and two days from now I will be just fine and I'm so delirious I actually dare to believe it.”
