(view spoiler)[You know... I liked this book a lot.. until the very ending. I am sorry, but you do not need religion to heal. You do not need a chapel or a priest or a prayer. WHY, OH WHY did they ruin this for me? Closure can come from other means! There are thousands of other ways for people to heal and come to terms with their troubles. I get that some people are religious and they need it to get by, but I personally am not and do not. I think this was a cop out and it pissed me off. 
 Sigh... none the less, nice, beautiful book. Save for the end. (hide spoiler)]
