I have read other Mitch Albom books and I do enjoy his writing style.  This book is about survivors of a boat explosion trying to survive on a life raft.  One of them may or may not be The Lord.  How they interact and their struggles are described.  Don't want to give away anything.  Albom's books always make me think about what heaven and God are really like.  Good story with a mix of philosophy.
