"At Day's End, I'll Always Be Me" by Jerry A. Greenberg - A successful artist, Ralph, going through a period of no sales, decides to become a writer, something which he has also enjoyed doing through his life. He moves to New York, where he meets another writer, Harvey, and Franny from Ukraine. The two writers suspect some international intrigue surrounding Fanny and become involved. The overriding theme is to enjoy your own abilities. Thanks for the excellent review.

It is obvious even from this review that this book has a plot that is unique and suspenseful. It's really an interesting idea, an author writing about how two authors struggle to collaborate in writing a book. I think this book will take you into the mind of the authors, open the readers' eyes to how authors think. This is a good one, the plot seems interesting and the Chara terms seem even more promising. I look forward to reading it. Congratulations to the author on the BOTD.

A well written adventure. I would love nothing more than to read it, in full.
There is no point in trying to please a person who doesn't apreciate me. Besides, why do I have to try and please anyone in the first place?

I'm so drawn close to this book by Jerry. I want to know more about this Ukrainian team who's is behind government secrets. Wow, so today Bookclub gave other people floor to volunteer and post a good top book of the day and review it wonderfully 👏.. The way the book is analysed I don't see any difference when I compare it to the daily reviews by our Favorite official team review. And one thing I like about the Official team review is that, we learning so much from the style of review points the always use. Now look at how this review is placed by a volunteer so great. One part I will never miss on my next own book review, is leaving a my readers with a mind question, which would trigger one to ho read reviewed book. Thank you so much volunteer for such great review of the Ukrainians and how they conducted them according to the author. Book rated 4stars that's the best, and the way author used the characters is so amazing, all participated up to the end.
But what is the government secret? That's good I got from the book I guess.

The book is set in New York City and follows the lives of two writers. Among the characters is also a young Ukrainian student torn between forging a new life and following in her unscrupulous countrymen's footsteps.

I’m intrigued at the role Frannie plays in the lives of the two writers so I’m looking forward to digging into this novel to find out what it is and what top government secret will be exposed and how this will change them.

Story within the story is a very interesting approach. Will it be too complicated to read as the story unfolds? I would like to read the rest of the book to find out. I, also, relate to Ralph character as he insists on doing what makes him happy over working in a job he hates. Great review.

This is very intriguing and interesting book. I thought that based upon the title that this book would be a motivational book about steps towards achieving your success. I am glad that this was one of the goals of the author when writing this piece, yet the thriller aspects of the book make the story a little confusing for me. It sounds like a great read with well developed characters.

I don't think an inspirational fiction book is for me, but it still seems to have interesting characters and a lot of adventures. Congrats on BOTD! Thanks for the informative review!

Unfortunately, this book is completely not my cup of tea. I like reading something more action packed, fast paced or at least suspense mounting. From everything said in review the book is nothing alike my preferences and therefore I will pass it. Still, congrats on BOTD!

The #BOTD being a character-centered book with a bit of intrigue and possible espionage sounds appealing. I wonder what government secret was unearthed by the two writers? Good review.

'Volunteer Review: At Day's End, I'll Always Be Me' by Jerry A. Greenberg is a vivid expression of the story of two aspiring writers for readers! The point that the book motivates readers to be themselves and bring out the best in them is worth mentioning in the review! Also, the point that the book's characterization is top-notch is remarkable in the review! I like the advice offered for potential readers in the review! Nice to learn that the book is motivational and educative!
