Book Review: What Remains True


Author: Janis Thomas
Book Title: What Remains True
Genre: Fiction
Published: December 1, 2017
Publisher: Lake Union Publishing
Pages: 348


Amazon Excerpt:
From the outside, the Davenports look like any other family living a completely ordinary life—until that devastating day when five-year-old Jonah is killed, and the family is torn apart. 

As the fury of guilt engulfs them, the Davenports slowly start to unravel, one by one.

My Review:
"What Remains True" truly touched my heart. 

This book is told from alternating views of everyone involved, even the family dog. 

Jonah has died and needs to move on to wherever humans go when they leave this earth, but he is too worried about his family to complete his journey. 

His family members, deep in the throes of divisiveness, can't move through the necessary stages of acceptance in order to grieve. 

Jonah has to find a way to help them do this so he can finally depart this earth.

This is a book that will leave clear imprints on your heart.
