Meh. At first the premise of the book seemed intriguing...and then like The Green Miles...and then it got kind of slow and too religious. And I was able to call the twist with the step dad from pretty early in the book. Overall I think the concept about giving away a convicted murderer's heart to a family member of the deceased is an interesting concept, but I think it could have been executed better. I liked all the perpectives for the most part though. Except Maggie was too hard on herself.
