My Thoughts on Genelle Guzman-McMillan's Angel in the Rubble: How I Survived for 27 Hours Under the World Trade Center Debris

The last thing that comes to my mind when I read this book is the term "preachy." I don't like it when people judge or scrutinize a memoir simply because of its religious content, rather than reading to listen to the message. I may be biased because I am a Christian, but Genelle Guzman's story is something everyone must read in order to truly understand the value of life.

This book shares the story of a woman who was taking everything for granted, all the way up until she had a near-death experience during 9/11, a devastating event that claimed the lives of almost three thousand people. Keep in mind that Guzman is the last survivor, and she remained under the rubble for twenty-seven hours, having flashbacks and memories of her entire life, being reminded of everything she did and how she was living wrong.

This is a heartfelt memoir that delves into a woman's personal life, which she shares in her own words. I'm so happy Guzman survived, and I'm glad she recovered and had a family with her husband. I hope she's living her best life and I'm more than delighted to know that she has established a relationship with God.

This is a very beautiful book, written by a beautiful author. If you read this, it will change your perspective on life and teach you not to take anything you have for granted. Hug your loved ones and enjoy every moment you spend with them. You never know what could happen.
