An inspirational book that breathes life into the hope of second, third and fourth chances, "More God Allows U-Turns" is a must-read for 2002.

Inspiring and refreshing
I really enjoyed this collection of short stories. Many of them were very well written and I found myself being inspired and encouraged when reading them. Some of the stories are also very thought provoking and I found myself setting the book down and allowing the words that I just read to refresh my soul. The short story called "Smiley" was, in my opinion, the highlight of the book. With the crafting of words in the style of Kingsolver and the spirituality of authors like Norris, the author caught the essence of what this book is all about. For those who need encouragement or just plain refreshing this book will uplift your soul.

**A MUST READ ~ INSPIRATIONAL***
After reading the first Volume of God Allows U-Turns I was hooked. I never imagined any book being as good as the first one. Well, This one certainly was. It literally blew me away. I love these stories so much, I was able to relate to many of them. It's so amazing to read a book and be so uplifted. These true life stories really touched my heart. I flew through the first volume, I never wanted the stories to end. So with Volume two I decided to take my time and savor each story, one or two at a time. Being a mother of four boys, this was my mini vacation every night. I would be so pumped up after reading them. I can't help but tell everyone about them. They really lit a spark in me.
