5 STARS. Catherine Lanigan’s Magical Midnight is a heart wrenching narrative featuring fantasy and romance. The book showcases the purity of a father son relationship, faith, and love, all of which weave into a beautiful work. The story revolves around an angel who attempts to bring together a father and a son who had drifted apart due to various adversities in life. Told from the third person point of view of Angela (or Angel 7777), Owen Michaels, Gregory Michaels, Holly, Sam, and their children emerge as the prominent characters. This book is an enticingly fun read that will make readers experience different emotions. One of the significant aspects of the book that keeps readers engaged is the author’s ability to transition smoothly between various settings. Catherine Lanigan cleverly connects Angela’s world with Owen and Gregory’s life through a portal in heaven or “the Other Side.” The chapters are intricately organized. Subheadings give information about where everything is taking place. The revival of Owen and his father’s dormant relationship, following Angela’s angelic intervention in their lives, symbolizes the power of faith in a person’s life. The narrative is more character driven, giving importance to the thoughts, intentions, and personal growth of the characters rather than the plot. At certain points, Lanigan depicts the characters' thoughts in italics. This change of fonts to distinguish the characters' thoughts from dialogues and her eloquent portrayal of unfiltered human emotions are tools in her impeccable writing style. Overall, Magical Midnight comes across as a light hearted read, touching upon mindful themes of love and faith. This book is highly recommended if you love reading fantasy stories that take you on a rollercoaster of emotions. Magical Midnight is an award finalist of the 2024 AmericanBookFest.com Best Book Awards.
