While the concept of the story was intriguing, it just wasn't very well written and I struggled to get as far as I did. I also thought this was supposed to be a Christian book, as it was written by a Christian author, but there was a good bit of language in it, which was disappointing to see.

This book is INCREDIBLE !!!

This book is amazing in so many ways. It beautifully displays the purpose that every human life has on this earth and it emphasizes that love moves people to sacrifice in ways they never thought they could. I am inspired and so happy that I got to read this incredible story!

When I first heard of this book on Instagram, it sounded great. A book about the value of life, feeling replaceable, and the meaning of faith in the middle of a crisis was an intriguing concept. I bought it, and when I finally had time, I started reading it... and it was nothing like what was promised. I couldn't get past a couple chapters, and after skimming a few pages later in the book, it became clear that I would not be finishing it. The clunky sentences and poor rhetorical devices (there are only so many times you can replace the word "said") made it difficult to read. In addition, the themes felt like I was being preached at to agree with the author, despite no real arguments about anything being made... or else. I appreciate the meaning intended, and I respect the effort the author put in, but the execution needed some work.

THIS BOOK!! This book was SO, SO good in so many ways! First off I love how it keeps referring to the Bible in very small ways. Secondly this book had SO MANY twists and turns and it kept you on your toes the whole time. There's was only one small twist I saw coming but even that one kept surprising me! I also love how the author was able to take a heavy topic and very loosely turn it into something fun. This book was unlike any other book I've ever read and it was refreshing! This book may just qualify as my new favorite book!

I just finished this, and I loved it so much!!! At first I wasn't sure how I was going to like it because futuristic, sci-fy, action books aren't really my go-to genre. But I ended up loving it so much!!! The plot line, the Easter eggs, how it compares with abortion was just magnifique'!!!
The details are just amazing!

What a delightful read! It has everything I love in a good book: strong faith message, relatable and lovable characters, heart wrenching plot twists, and an invaluable message! I’ve been dying to get to this one on my TBR list and I’m so happy I finally finished it!

Really interesting concept and good, positive themes. There were just a lot of grammatical/incorrect word errors. And the same metaphors and phrases were used over and over again. There were just too many similes for my personal taste.

OOOHHHHH MYYYYY LORD IN HEAVEN. THIS. THIS BOOK. I- This is my new favorite book. That's all I can say. I mean... I just- It is SO GOOD. I- the characters immediately stole my heart, and I fell in love with the concept. This whole story was insane. It was unlike anything I had read!! It was so captivating and interesting, and above all, it related back to faith and God to the PERFECT amount! I just... I can't even describe how much I love this book. There were so many twists and turns that I was not expecting. I was always on my toes and excited to see what would happen next! It really threw me for a loop in the best possible way. I mean good LORD this book was good. 1000000/10. This really is my new favorite book and I would die to read it again for the first time.

Also, this is 100% my new favorite quote: "All paper looks the same. But it's the writing that makes each piece irreplaceable."

AHHH THIS WAS JUST SUCH A GOO DBOOK I AM FREAKING OUT RIGHT NOW-

Oddly enough, I really enjoyed this book. Not everyone’s cup of tea, but I had to know what happened to the characters in the end. Have to escape those pacifiers some how!
