Don't get us wrong: While Repossessed has a straightforward plot and won't bog you down with a lot of big words or complex sentence structures, it still packs a hefty punch. Why's that? The central questions posed by this novel have to do with religious beliefs and morality, which are thorny issues since pretty much forever. And because of this, easy as it is to get caught up in the plot and plow through the pages, there's also some serious food for thought packed in here. So get ready to do a bit of chewing. Nom nom.
