Publisher's summary
The best-selling author of Practical Magic tells the tale of a man and a woman, an activist and a therapist, so consumed with helping others that they are in danger of failing in their duty to themselves.
Natalie, a therapist, is in love with Carter - but he is deeply dedicated to his environmental work, and the fate of their relationship takes a backseat to the fate of the planet. Then a new client walks into Natalie's office. He is an intriguing man, with an incredible tale to tell, and under his influence she faces questions about the direction of her own passion, the true meaning of commitment…and the possibility of finding the love she seeks - right in her own backyard.

One June day when Mia Jacob can no longer see a way to survive, the power of words saves her. The Scarlet Letter was written almost two hundred years earlier, but it seems to tell the story of Mia’s mother, Ivy, and their life inside the Community—an oppressive cult in western Massachusetts where contact with the outside world is forbidden. But how could this be? How could Nathaniel Hawthorne have so perfectly captured the pain and loss that Mia carries inside her?

Be careful what you wish for. A woman who was touched by tragedy as a child now lives a quiet life, keeping other people at a cool distance. She even believes she wants it that way. Then one day, she utters an idle wish and, while standing in her house, is struck by lightning. But instead of ending her life, this cataclysmic event sparks a strange and powerful new beginning. She goes in search of Lazarus Jones, a fellow survivor who was struck dead, then simply got up and walked away. Perhaps this stranger who has seen death face-to-face can teach her to live without fear.

Perhaps this stranger who has seen death face-to-face can teach her to live without fear.

Beautiful
I am enthralled with Alice Hoffman and the way she crafts words into stories. Ms. Hoffman has a way of drawing a reader in and expanding one’s mind to a place one could never visit otherwise. I don’t know if this story would touch anyone else in the way it touched me. What I can know is if you are the type of reader who values a well written story, full of dynamic characterizations and authentic settings, you may want to spend time listening to “Angel Landing”.

Mediocre Alice
In previous Hoffman’s writings, I’ve literally been swept away by her gorgeous prose and genius story telling style.
Not so Angel Landing. I was soooo disappointed- a trite predictable story with none of the gorgeous analogies, descriptive prose and deliciously surprising, twisting and turning prosei admit I listened to the bitter end but it was a “write by numbers” book-shame on you Alice!

not a favorite
I've been attached to Alice Hoffman as one of my favorite writers for years.. but this is not a favorite book. Finn is complex and interesting but Natalie I couldn't warm up to. The supporting characters are very strong but the romance doesn't seem to flow naturally to me...

Hated the story and the people. Hated the narration
I just don't get why this awful story was written. The main character is an idiot. Sorry it's true. Finn is a weak in all respects and the narrator nsfe him sound creepy to boot. It's the second worst book I've ever read.

I tried because it is Alice Hoffman
This was the first time I ever was disappointed with Alice Hoffman’s work. It was just drawn out and didn’t fit together well. There were pockets of potential but overall a big gap between the plot and what makes sense.
