Review # 1 was written on 2008-06-24 00:00:00 Brett Piskorowski ***Do NOT pay attention to the drab official book description!!! Whoever wrote it needs to be slapped upside the head!*** This book is about the journey of souls. The story follows individuals throughout the span of eternity, from before the world was - to the joys, tribulations, romance, and spiritual growth of mortal life - to the hereafter and beyond. Added Upon is the truest of true love stories, encompassing love in it's different forms - God's love, family love, romantic love, friendly love. The characters are tangible. Their earthly experiences are real and relatable. Fiction, Doctrine, and Love are masterfully woven together like a braid of three fine satin ribbons. I crave reading this book every few or so years, and savor the beautiful prose, poetry, and scripture that make up this story that is more than a century old. Download this book FREE here: |
Review # 2 was written on 2012-03-10 00:00:00 Timothy Stanley I'm not sure why there is such a lame description for this amazing book on Goodreads. It is one of the first LDS Fictions ever written (1898). I found this book in my Grandfather's bookshelf (I believe a first edition)and it was one of the first LDS fictions I ever read. I was a very young teen and it had a profound impact on me. I couldn't put it down. The story follows a romance between a man and woman from their premortal existence, through their lives on the earth and into postmortal life. I believe Added Upon served as the model for Lex de Azevedo's musical Saturday's Warrior. It is definitely a book worth reading! |
