Easy to read and uplifting to hear how people are helped by reading the Psalms and discovering Jesus.

this was not constructed or written well - the story was hard to follow and kept jumping all over the place. I get what the author was trying to do but not impressed with the way it was conveyed.

Brenda's gift is a small book of Psalms that she gives to a friend, Will. The story starts there and continues with an angel named Chosen, whose job it is to follow the little book and see where it goes and what it does to change lives...because God's Word does not return void. Lives are changed when the Word of God is read and taken to heart. A good book with many interesting people in the mix.

Supernatural-ish. About an angel who follows a certain part of the Bible around for years. I've re-read this one a couple of times now, and I've enjoyed every time. My copy is bent and frayed and I spilled water on it, so pages are warped, but that's beyond the point - a good read.
