From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Book Lovers and Beach Read comes a sparkling novel that will leave you with the warm, hazy afterglow usually reserved for the best vacations. Two best friends. Ten summer trips. One last chance to fall in love. Poppy and Alex. Alex and Poppy. They have nothing in common. She’s a wild child; he wears khakis. She has insatiable wanderlust; he prefers to stay home with a book. And somehow, ever since a fateful car share home from college many years ago, they are the very best of friends. For most of the year they live far apart—she’s in New York City, and he’s in their small hometown—but every summer, for a decade, they have taken one glorious week of vacation together. Until two years ago, when they ruined everything. They haven't spoken since. Poppy has everything she should want, but she’s stuck in a rut. When someone asks when she was last truly happy, she knows, without a doubt, it was on that ill-fated, final trip with Alex. And so, she decides to convince her best friend to take one more vacation together—lay everything on the table, make it all right. Miraculously, he agrees. Now she has a week to fix everything. If only she can get around the one big truth that has always stood quietly in the middle of their seemingly perfect relationship. What could possibly go wrong?

Are loved ones reunited in Heaven? The saints say “Absolutely!” In wise and consoling letters written to a mother sorrowing over the death of her child, Fr. François René Blot, S.J., here summons the Church’s greatest saints who testify with one voice that death’s wound, though grievous, separates us but for a short while from those who die before us. Acknowledging that profound sorrow at the death of loved ones is appropriate (after all, even Jesus wept for the death of his friend Lazarus), Fr. Blot nonetheless gives us reason to be joyful even in the midst of our sorrow: in heaven our loves and friendships will finally be free of the many hindrances — small and large — that keep them from being perfect in this life. Moreover, the saints say, in heaven we will love and know the love of countless souls we never met on earth, our Guardian Angel, and all the choirs of angels! Soon after it was written, a Catholic Cardinal called this book “a pearl set in the fine gold of the doctrine of the Fathers” and a newspaper declared that it “deserves a distinguished place in all Christian libraries and should be on the table of every pious family that faithfully preserves the memory of its deceased members.” Let the saints’ testimony in these beautiful pages assuage your grief and renew your hope! Let them increase your gratitude for the sacrifice of Christ whose death on the Cross opened heaven for us, and made these heavenly reunions possible!

This is a reissue of the novel inspired by Hunter S. Thompson's ether-fuelled, savage journey to the heart of the American Dream: We were somewhere around Barstow on the edge of the desert when the drugs began to take hold... And suddenly there was a terrible roar all around us and the sky was full of what looked like huge bats, all swooping and screeching and diving around the car, which was going about a hundred miles an hour with the top down to Las Vegas.

The traditions of men make the word of God of non-effect. However, when God and man are one, we can embrace endless possibilities of his grace. When the cloud of glory is moving, move with it. From glory to glory – faith to faith – victory to victory. The hidden mysteries in God are revealed to those who have a heart for him. As God reveals His secrets, we are transformed by the renewing of our mind to the word and ways of The Father. Reformation is needed as we continue to receive deeper and greater revelations from the Holy Spirit. Change is inevitable, not always welcomed, but necessary. As we change (metanoia) our thinking, our theology will shift, and it is then we discover the nuances of His grace (hesed) and love. Adventures with God into the SuperNatural realm will yield tremendous and awesome benefits. “The problem isn’t that I (God) haven’t given; it’s that you haven’t received (ask God to help you receive),” We receive most of these benefits as gifts of His grace by our spoken words. When what we see is not what we want, it’s not over for the Believer. Creative miracles, Recovery, and Restorations of things lost will become the Natural way of life in this SuperNatural move of God. Miracles will occur at an accelerated pace. It starts as we surrender to the will of the Father, change our thinking and begin to declare: “Restore, Restore.” The SuperNatural is the place we meet God. It is here that we are changed in the presence of his glory. It is the place where we embrace endless possibilities and where nothing, absolutely nothing, is impossible. It is here that God and man become one, and endless possibilities become our reality.
