Julie’s review of My Highway to Heaven: A Novel of Carlo Acutis > Likes and Comments

Hi Julie,

Thank you so much for such a deeply thoughtful, honest, and heartfelt review. I’m truly touched that Naomi’s story and the Eucharistic miracles resonated with you, and that the book stayed in your heart even after you put it down.

I also deeply appreciate your transparency regarding the AI aspect of the writing process. I respect the care and reflection you put into discussing it with your family and friends—and even considering those fascinating historical parallels with group craftsmanship! Your willingness to grapple with those questions so openly while engaging with the story means a great deal to me.

I’ve written a short blog post titled "A Reviewer Who Couldn't Put Naomi Down" to thank you and share your wonderful work and books with my readers. Since Goodreads doesn't allow external web links in comments, I’ve placed the link to the post on my Goodreads profile page so you can find it easily. I also explicitly shared your honest reservations about the AI process, as it’s an important conversation to have.

Thank you again for your generosity, openness, and thoughtful reading.

With love and prayers,
Blaise
