This seems like a sweet book: a man running away from his problems embarks on a spiritual journey. Too bad about the run-on sentences, awkwardly worded sentences, and that there isn't anything new or unique here. I'm glad to hear, though, that the portrayal of the characters worked well. Don't think this is for me, but I'm glad you enjoyed the book!

I found this story to be an educational literary fiction story that aimed to change the protagonist's perspective and priorities in life. Excellent onlinebook.org review.

Thank you for the great review. However, I don't fancy this kind of genre. But for people who love to read stories that will take you on a journey of self discovery this will be a good read.

Nice review. Though I think that this would be a good read for people who enjoy fiction about spirituality and personal spirit journeys it’s not really my cup of tea. Thanks so much for sharing.

A man trying to run away from his problems and gets help from a series of people and it seems to all be a dream does sound interesting. Congrats on being BOTD.

Thanks for your review. It's a nice concept but I agree, after reading the sample, that the language could use some tidying up.

Sounds like a sweet story about life’s lessons and growth. However, I do not think it is for me. Thanks for the review!

Dancing with Sophia is a delightful novel of a self- absorbed young man. The author beautifully narrates the whole journey. The reviewer has done a good job.

This is on my reading list for today. The sample was intriguing and I don't have the reviewer's problems with the author's choice of words.

Sounds like an interesting book.

Don't dwell much on the title. Dancing with Sophia, by Ramalho Almeida has a main act in Baingana. He is a self-
absorbed young dude, which results in him being sacked from his job and then subsequently dumped by his
girlfriend. How did he survive? Find out more. Hav A good read
