“The Great Divorce” by C. S. Lewis

Reader Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ (4/5 stars)

If you want to be a better person—if you want to see your skills and flaws more completely and understand the love of God a bit better—read this book. While fanciful and unique, this depiction of Heaven, Hell, and those who dwell in each causes deep personal introspection in every reader.
