I had heard so much about the book that I wanted to read it.  I did not care for the book, especially the ending.

A lot of the book as been discussed on so many talk shows that there was little you hadn't already know.

The information contained in the book was more than what is in the other books that I have on the subject.

I was so into the book that someone asked me if it was fiction and I said that I didn't know. So much history that I didn't know. The amazing speeches by our leaders that all quoted the same Bible verse. The warning! I loved this book so much that I bought a copy for each of our grown children. Enough said.

I looked foward to reading this wonderful book everyday. It was so good and I learned so much about what I had always wanted to know.

I  thought it should go on, there was so much more to tell.  I went  back and read the last chapter.

My favorite thing about this book was that it was filled with so many things I had never heard before.  It helped me know myself better and I read it during a time when I'm making a lot of new habits.  The advice has been effective and spot-on.

Excellent book.  I had known about the subject matter but reading the book told me so much more.

I found that I wanted to read this book slowly, because there was so much in it that I didn't want to miss.  Each chapter explores a truth of the gospel, and the end of the chapter lists Bible verses for diving deeper, along with suggestions for further exploration of the ideas presented.  The chapter that affected me most was Chapter 9, which talked about figuring out God's plan for our lives.  I learned so much from this book about what a lot of the words to some songs I had been listening to meant.  It makes them much more meaningful every time I listen to them now.  I would highly recommend this book.

I've read a few books that had the possibility of being called life changing, and this is one.

I downloaded this book at 8:30 last night, and read until my eyelids twitched so much I had to turn off my Kindle. However, I started reading again today and have already finished it. This is a dear book. I felt like I had said goodbye to an old friend when the story was over . . I cared about the characters and the injustices they encountered, and I also learned about a period in history I was not familiar with. I can see this as a movie in the very -near future. At the least, I will be telling everyone to read it!

OK I admit it, I read books about people I almost knew but didn't get a chance to know, being to young. I read biography as a way to understand history. I will read this book again. Jean van Heijenoot lived for a time just a few miles from my parents house but if I met him , he would have been just another 'grownup' to me. How I wish I had known more about the world and asked more questions of all those grownups. Now I have to read books about them to make up for it.

It is very dense with information that I was not aware of although I read a lot of history books.  I will probably read it twice.

At the time I purchased this book I was fairly new to the "non duality" club, I had read several books and my interest in the subject was piqued. I read this book over a couple of weeks while walking on the Treadmill at the gym. I really enjoyed it and related to so much of what he said especially on the subject of fear. I experienced a great deal of fear after learning and seeing that my whole life was nothing but a story, that I did not in fact exist. Now what? Stephen guides the reader gently through the fear and confusion to the silence of being, to the end of the story. I was sad to come to the end of the book, it felt like a good friend. A few weeks ago, after almost a year, I reread it and I found it even more powerful. I would heartily recommend this book to anyone interested in ending the search, if you were to read just one book, this would be it.
