I must commend the bravery of the author in revealing such pure and vulnerable aspects of their lives.

I like the fact that he shows the positive and negative aspects so that the reader make their judgment. Thanks for your review.

Latest Review: Addressing Systemic Discrimination by Reframing the Problem by Dr. Frank L. Douglas

Post by Lightone Maulu 2 »

I like the way the review is written with emphasis on how we perceive life. The review shows that when you concentrate on the negatives of your life you live a bad life, but if you focus on the positives, you will live a good life. It shows that these two aspects of life are like two sides of a coin.

I appreciate the lesson I have learned from this well - written review: to appreciate the little good things in my life.

Thank you for the insightful review! I have only sampled the first part of the book which is so full of fear that I couldn't read it without feeling sad. This means the book was very well written, conveying the right feelings. I am glad that there is a positive part as well, proving that life can be looked at from different angles.

The book sample's darkness, suffering, and failures were quite depressing. I know the positive aspects are displayed in the book's second half, but I think I'd rather read about the author's life chronologically. The book review was well-written.

While the positive side of a person should be enjoyed and sustained, the negative side of a person is like a weakness that should be worked upon and changed. Congrats on BOTD.

I like how the book depicts how one's outlook on life can be influenced by their experiences. This review of "Sunshine Among the Clouds" presents an interesting perspective on this idea, suggesting that one's perception of life depends on whether they focus on the positive or negative aspects of their experiences. Congratulations on BOTD.

According to the review, the book addresses both the positive and negative aspects of life. However, the bad seems to stand out more in the early years of life, but as adults, we can choose to focus on the positives. This is a highly informative book.

People who like memoirs will enjoy this book and learn from the author's experiences. I don't like nonfiction, so I'll pass on this book.

I don't really like reading memoirs, but I like the lesson that this book teaches, which is about perception. If we believe we have a terrible life, we will have, but if we focus on the positive aspects, we will see the beauty. Congrats on BOTD!

Nice review! The book having a negative and a positive aspect is a different way of a writing style. It seems like very interesting book.

I like how this book seems to be more self-help focused, with the author looking at the positive lessons that can be learned from each life experience, regardless of how painful the experience was, but reading about the life of this author is of no interest to me. Great review.
