I was glad there was a second book to read after the first one. This gives the closure that left me wanting for more from the first book. I'd read it again and probably will at some point.

In The Final Wish of Mr. Murray McBride, Joe Siple takes readers on a remarkable and compassionate journey. We enter the lives of the young and the not so young, the healthy and those suffering from chronic illness. For Jason it’s about coping with a failing heart transplant and the complicated feelings he holds for the donor. Young Alexandra shows how it’s possible (given the right treatment) to manage disease effectively. Here we have fiction that extends the legacy of an earlier friendship with Mr. Murray McBride and continues the pattern of intergenerational relationships. It’s positive to see those suffering illness and disease given a platform. In a totally appropriate novel for our time, readers begin to understand the experiences of characters who seek a safer yet illegal life in America and who want nothing more than the opportunity to contribute to the community where appropriate help is offered. In this outstanding story, full of twists and turns, Joe Siple’s characters are courageous in the face of challenges but totally human with regrets, weaknesses, feelings of guilt, fears and hopes. This is a wonderfully affirming read which offers powerful messages about acceptance and belonging. ( )

This book is a sequel to Five Wishes of Mr. Murray McBride but enough of the first book is conveyed in this book that it can stand alone. It is a heartwarming story of a man who helps a girl complete five wishes and finds himself along the way. At times it was a little cheesy or things worked out a little too conveniently but overall it was a good story well told.

The memory of Murray McBride lives on in this heartwarming novel by Joe Siple as Father James pairs up another unlikely duo.
All the feels come back as Jason returns to Lemon Grove still grieving after 20 years. While seeking guidance from Father James, Jason meets an exuberant young illegal immigrant girl, Alexandra. Together they embark on series of thought provoking and challenging adventures.
This story is beautiful, suspenseful and relevant. It will fill your heart with both joy, and sadness. You will both cheer and be outraged. But ultimately, you will be uplifted and your faith in humanity restored. ( )
