"Room of Marvels"
Author: James Bryan Smith
I received this book after church today and read in one seating! Not only could I not put in down, I couldn't stop crying -- overwhelmed by the reminder of God's love, overwhelmed by self-reflection, and overwhelmed by the journey through Heaven. This is a novel based on the death of the author's 3 closest people in his life. After struggling with grief and anger, Tim attends a 5 day silent retreat at a monestary which starts his inward journey to understanding his relationship with God. Tim has a dream to deal with love, forgiveness, masks, and control. Wait until you find out the concept of the "room of marvels" in Heaven. It is so awesome!!
I have one copy that needs to go into circulation but we need to get more. We have now bought a total of 16 books as gifts! That is how good this little book is! We hear that there is going to be a new release in the Fall with a new cover. Not sure if that is true or not!

I lost my 7 month old son 2 1/2 months ago, and it is the deepest pain I have ever felt. Much like Tim's daughter, Madison, in this book, my son died from a chromosomal abnormality and a severe heart defect. Out of reading at least 7 or 8 books on grieving, this is the only one that has kept me going. Tim's feelings that he describes in the beginning are so real, and unlike the other books I've read, he doesn't have grief "all figured out". I am currently reading it for the second time, and love it just as much as I did initially. I will probably read it every year for the rest of my life. Anyone who has lost a loved one should read this book.
 Enjoyed It January 16, 2007

I thought the book was very well written and thought provoking. It is, however, very similar to Mitch Albom's book The Five People You Meet in Heaven. Not sure which I liked better. Having read both, it is interesting to see how the different authors view heaven.

Excellent, uplifting, inspiring. Great for those grieving over the loss of a loved one or just wanting a glimps of what may be in eternity.
