Book Review: I Love You To God and Back


Book Review:
I Love You to God and Back
By
Amanda Lamb

I was excited to get this book as it looks extremely adorable and the title, even though it's not the most original, really struck a note with me. Maybe it's because of my love for the book that had the original saying "I love you to the moon and back" that I had high expectations for this book. I am not really sure. 

The book was lovely in away and very sweet. The mother had written down her daughter's nighttime prayers for a year. Then some conversations and little blurb's on what she learned from her daughter's prayers and their conversations. It was a very personal book which is probably why I didn't really like it. It may have been just a little too personal. 

I felt as if I was somewhere I shouldn't have been and I was apart of someones very personal prayer time and journey with God. I also felt at times that the book was a bit too much. She was trying too hard to learn something from every prayer that it felt a bit reaching. 

Personally I would think this would be a wonderful gift to give her daughter, I don't know if I really thought it was a great book idea. 

I received this book free from the publisher through the BookSneeze®.com <http://BookSneeze®.com> book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review.
