I picked up this book because it was on the shorter side and I figured I could read through it pretty fast. The writing is very easy to read through so that turned out to be quite true. Minus a few typos and what not here and there. But really, what books these days doesn't have that. Especially when we take into account the kindle sales where in a lot of cases the books will never make back what authors put into them money wise.So while the story was well done and had a lot of thought put into it, I have to say up front that it was in no way "my kind of story" and I was quite bored. To the point of where I had trouble finishing it. However, I rate the book at four stars simply because I know others will really enjoy the story.One thing I want to point out is that having a different cover art for the kindle version vs the printed version is kind of weird. Another thing that confused me was in the opening chapter Fine used the phrase "left right pam pam" or in other cases, the pams would come first. I understand that when running for your life your darting all over the place and the way the author wrote it makes it feel fast paced. But the "pam pam" confused me. I don't understand what those words were meant to imply.The few things I did enjoy are the story was the twins. The idea of a set of twins one being a rabbi and the other becoming a priest and never knowing the other. It’s kind of feels like the set up to a bad joke but at the same time, it’s an interesting concept that I kind of liked.I also want to point out that I am in no way religious and know next to nothing about both faiths.So in the end I feel that this book can appeal to a lot of people and while I enjoyed aspects, I found the majority to be dull.
