What in God's Name by Simon Rich

I started reading this gem on June 27 and finished it on July 9, 2019. I learned of this book, What in God's Name, after seeing the preview for the TV show called "Miracle Workers" that is based on the book.

So, naturally, The Husband procured this book from our local library and I gave it a read.

It was hilarious! The general synopsis is that angels in heaven help run Earth from afar by creating little happenings to help things along. God has mostly checked out and wants to end the Earth.

That's where the miracle workers come into play - they don't want Earth to end. One of the angels makes a deal with God that he can make a difference - if he wins, Earth continues. If he doesn't win, God can blow up Earth.

That's all I can say without giving it all away. The TV show is slightly different from the book, but follows the same premise.

The book is really funny and I loved it. If you want to laugh your ass off, this just might do the trick.
