His Final Answer: Book Review + Enter To Win #hisfinalanswer #readthis #bookstagram

**Book received for consideration. All opinions are my own. 


Have you ever read a book that takes you by absolute surprise? His Final Answer was certainly one of those for me, take a look:

This story is about the wrath of tragic grief and how self-renewal is the key for any future possibilities or reconciliation of the past.

Daniel Pallson is considered by most to have everything one could ask for as one of the self made wealthiest people in the world, however in reality since he tragically lost his son twenty years ago he has been one of the emptiest people in the world. Since then he has shut everything out of his life including his wife, extended family, faith in himself, spirituality and most everything else except his business.

A long time American citizen and resident Daniel returns to his native Iceland for a very important business project. While in Iceland he suffers a life threatening event that does not allow him to leave the country any time soon. His only best option where to convalesce is at his estranged brother Jons ranch where they both grew up. Daniels wife Doris with whom he has been separated from for years also comes from her home in Boston knowing this could be life or death situation. Doris has been separated from Daniel for about 6 years. To his complete dismay Daniel must now face not only his own mortality but all he shunned all these years. What is his final answer?






Admittedly, this isn't my usual type of read. More often than not, I definitely tend to be drawn to more lighthearted reads with a guaranteed happily ever after, so I really wasn't really sure what to expect from this one. Right away though, I found myself drawn into Daniel's story. On the surface, he is a successful man who seems to have it all--- but after a health emergency forces him to slow down, we see that he's been struggling with the deep grief of losing his son many years before. These characters captivated me and had me rooting for them right to the end. This was a beautiful story of loss and grief, but also a story of faith that packs an emotional punch that will make you think. I found myself reaching for tissues so many times throughout, but at the same time found it quite healing by the end. And while I don't want to say too much and give away any spoilers, that ending? Certainly not what I'd anticipated... but such a beautiful way to end the story! Daniel's journey was beautifully written and while it might not have been one that I'd have initially picked up on my own, it's certainly one that I am glad to have experienced! 

Though His Final Answer is a faith-based story, it does have a bit of minor language.
