@charysma_lilly I try to judge each book by it's own merits so that means a lot. Thank you!!

I like the author's choice for the title of this book. It's very catchy and if I were to see it in a book store, I would definitely take a look. Escapeartist, you did a wonderful job reviewing this book and I'm glad that you liked it. Congratulations to the author on a high rating.

@Cee-Jay Aurinko thank you so much, my friend!! I concur, it's a catchy title and very fitting if you read his story. The cover is also very intriguing and ties into the title.

@Escapeartist

I totally agree about the cover. They say don't judge a book by its cover, but I've always done exactly the opposite, and was I ever wrong? Never.

@Escapeartist

I think that old saying might've had something to it back in the old days. But nowadays, a good cover always means a good book.

Sounds like a very touching book. Sometimes people don't appreciate their lives as much as they should until they read something like this. Great review!

Great review! :) Reading this book must have been an emotionally draining experience, and I can't imagine what the author went through penning down his life experiences. Congratulations to the author for the positive review!

@debo9967 it was emotional, but I felt more for the author and his family, as you mentioned it must have been very hard to bring this to fruition. Thank you for the kind words!

My compliments Levi, on a thoughtful and well-articulated review. Based upon your recommendation I have placed this book on my TBR list.
