review 1: David Safier has written a wonderful novel. I especially loved the comic strips throughout the book and how they complimented the story. The novel engaged me from the beginning, the writing style flowing easily and a nice pace to events. No slow build ups here! Funny, cute and ironic, are the three words I'd use to describe this novel. It brought a smile to my face whilst reading. The characters were very realistic as well, with genuine faults and insecurities that were played out throughout the novel. The ending was unexpected which was a pleasent surprise, which I loved.I received the book for free through Goodreads First Reads.
review 2: Such a great read! I love Safier's books, they are fun and easy to read, they play with our references and pre-conceived i... moredeas, and the plot is always cenetered around some unbelievable situation, such as this. The bridget-jones-character Marie is not the typical heroine, and everyone seems to notice that, up until Jesus (Joshua) himself finds her a really interesting company. This leads to a fun and heart-breaking adventure and many discoveries about love in general. Contrary to what it may seem, this book is not religious, at the same time, it's not herectic either, it plays with biblical references, but also take the true meaning of them very seriously. The interventions were great, with little dialogues from Star Trek which fitted the situation at hand, and comic strips made by Marie's sister, Kata, one of the best characters ever. The ending was completely unexpected, running away from clichés. I highly recommend it for everyone who doesn't take themselves too seriously. less
