GUS Grissom Book

Before deciding to read this book, I read many reviews on it. Other than those praising Crystal Woodman Miller for presenting God's love in such a good way, the most common review point I read was that people expected her to share more about what happened that day at Columbine High School. My initial response to these comments was to want to defend the author, not because she could not do so for herself but because the story is so deeply personal. Honestly, the reviews made me, at first, want to avoid reading the book. As a survivor of a mass shooting myself, I have been desperately searching for a way to reconnect to the hope, joy, and peace I had prior to the shooting. After meeting the author, and seeing the genuine joy with which she lives her life, I decided that reading the book might be worthwhile. And I do have to say that the story she shares about Columbine is amazingly detailed, and honestly more than I expected. And the journey she has been one since is one of courage, strength, and HOPE. Don't read this book if all you want is more detail of what happened at Columbine. But if what you want is to read truth, honesty and an amazing account of finding one's way back to a life of purpose after tragedy, then pick up this book! Definitely worth the read!
