John Irving, A Prayer for Owen Meany

I honestly think this is the most moving, funny, heartbreaking book, and it will stay with me for a good while.

I enjoyed the descriptions of the different religions and the petty reasons people would switch to another or look down on those in other creeds, not really living the religious life and not recognising that a 'happening' was in their midst as they went about their petty lives. I also loved the suspicion in the story, especially at the end. I absolutely adore Owen Meany and miss him terribly. The last line in the book brought me to tears.
