If I Could Die
Book description
"There's a set time, a season, for everything under the heavens," Tobiel said. "You can ask God to do something numerous times. Get others to ask for you. And He still will not move until the set time, when everything is beautiful. Including you." --from IF I COULD DIE

Why read it?
1 author picked If I Could Die as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
The most supernatural of this list, this book has occasional short chapters (usually just a paragraph or two) by the angel who is shepherding a dying man toward death.
These little interludes give the reader flickers of insight into the author’s vision of dying without anything like proselytizing. The engrossing overarching story is one of friends and family in a small Southern town and one woman’s struggle with her identity and her religion, again without judgment.
There are no easy answers – this book is real and heartwarming at the same time that it is heartbreaking.
From Ellen's list on magical books for realists.
