Loved this book. It was a nice break to read a young adult book. The story in Might Close to Heaven was beautiful and simply told. Id recommend this for adults just as easily as I would for younger people. It reminds you of the importance of family and friends and accepting love in different forms. Cried a little, not gonna lie!

One of the my books assigned from Young Adult Literature, and it made me cry. Amazingly written coming of age story about a 12 year old boy in 1950s Georgia who learns where is home is after leaving it.
