"Never before has a book actually made me angry!
The author sucked us in with a traumatic and hearbreaking story.
A parents biggest fear.
Once he had sucked us in he then decided to spout his religious rubbish at us.
This book is absolute rubbish and I feel sorry for anyone who
believes this can help them through tragedy or help them to find god.
The author should feel ashamed" - Cips (theshackbook.com)

This book brought out a lot of different emotions in people, but it has been very interesting watching people that truly hate this book. If you read farther down the posts you can see there is a trend in the people that dislike the book. The people that hate it tend to do so when they cannot be helped themselves by it, or it did not answer questions that had about the religion. The book also brought out other opinions too.

"Again, I don't see how anyone cannot be changed after reading this book. You either haven't gone far in relationship with the Lord or YOU simply aren't ready for a novel of this caliber. IT IS JUST THAT GOOD!" -agreen87 (theshackbook.com)

On this side are the people that absolutely adore the book and think that it was the book of the century. What is weird to look at is that the people that loved the book seem to have been changed by it and at the same time maybe had their questions answered about Christ. Although the opinions vary very drastically about the book the main idea of this was to show the two sides and try to understand more about the people behind the posts.
