Carry the Moon across the Sky by Jillian Rose

Carry the Moon across the Sky is a 315-page novel by Jillian Rose. Although the author claims it is a novel, the book is written in the first person perspective, and if you are a bit sensitive, you’ll soon find out it is more an autobiography than a novel.

The book is divided into three parts. In the first part we learn about the loss of the protagonists beloved dog, with which she had a very intense and almost magical relationship. Also in this part, she meets a mysterious man, and they fall in love. The second part is about the end of that love affair and the following spiritual awakening of the protagonist. In the third part, we follow her way back into life and towards her true love.
The novel is a classical Twin Flame Story, and the reader should be familiar with this concept; otherwise, one might not understand it at all.

I rated the book 4 out of 5 stars because the writing is real poetry. Jillian’s talent for describing scenes is uncanny, and how she awakens images with words and sentences is downright beautiful. However, not much happens so it is not a book with a real plot or action-packed, and the second part, to me, was a bit boring. Although I am spiritual myself, I struggled a bit with the events.

I detracted one star because it is a little too special. If you are not on a Twin Flame journey yourself, you might not understand half of the book and what this is all about. Even if you are, each Twin Flame pair is different and that makes it sometimes hard to connect with the story and the protagonist’s decisions.

Overall it is a beautiful book worth reading, at least if you are interested in Twin Flames. It slowly weaves its way into your heart. I especially loved the end of the book. It is mystical, magical, and heartwarming. On top of that, it is well edited; I did not find any mistakes in spelling or grammar. So if you are on a Twin Flame journey yourself, or open-minded in all things spiritual, you might give it a try. Each chapter starts with a quote from Rumi, and if this name is familiar to you and you like his poetry, Carry the Moon across the Stars might be the perfect book for you.
