I was thinking if the review could be this concise and relatable, how much more the book itself? I am looking forward to reading ByTheWay. Congratulations on the book of the day.

Thank you for your review. The vivid descriptions make it sound the author did a good job bringing out his creativity.

The way you accurately portrayed the protagonist's emotions and the emphasis you placed on it along with your excellent summary of the book makes me feel as thought I've already read it.

By The Way by Dennis Santos is an interesting fiction. The story begins with Dalan coming from a morning Jog. Dalan turns out to be a vagrant and now is being taken care of by his sister Caren. He reviews how he lost his two guardians Bill and Mary when he was twelve the previous summer they spent at their lodge on the coast in Rainbow valley. After their visit reached a conclusion. They chose to return home, and Dalan mentioned to ride down toward the rear of the truck. His dad was not for the thought but rather eventually, he concurred remembering their young fellow was one mature enough. The old Chevy his dad was driving skittered down the lofty incline advancing to the ocean. Acknowledging he was going abet excessively quick, Dalans father stepped on the brakes, however the back slipped aside, He trampled the brakes both nothing occurred.

Dalan twirled around to see his dad grappling with the preparing wheel yet they kept on crisscrossing across the street perilously. Bill went after the handbrake to bring to a stand-still. The delivery pressure on the guiding wheel made the truck whip around, he attempted to control the directing wheel, however nothing occurred, the truck hit a stone and dispatched upward. The effect threw Dalan from the track bed and landed him level on his back at the focal point of the country road, yet his folks weren't adequately fortunate, and they fell off the cliff.

Dalan's wedding is here, he is all anxious and he will wed the affection for his life Jennifer. The wedding goes on as arranged and Jennifer isn't prepared for the shocked anticipated their special night. Be that as it may, the inquiry is will Dalan at any point fail to remember what happened over 10 years prior to his folks or will he everlastingly stick to the situation he saw back in the Rainbow valley.
The flow of the story is quite smooth, I give it 2 out of 4 stars.

Humor always goes a long way. This sounds like a good book to read after reading a heavy drama or heavy action book. Thank you for the review.

I enjoyed the sample pages a lot. Then I came to read your review and not only did I thoroughly enjoy your very detailed and interesting review, you have shown me that I do need to get this book and read the rest of it later on. Thank you for a great job!

Vivid descriptions go a long way with stories involving a new planet. I just hope that they don’t drag down the narrative pacing at all. Combining it with emotional trauma is a good way to up the tension as well. Thank you for the helpful review.

This is a well written book that tackles themes like grief, desperation, joy and happiness. I think it would be very helpful especially during this covid period where people are going through grief and alot of desperation. Thank you for a great review.

Everything okay the writing and reviewing is beautiful. Albeit some overlaps of tragic humour wins ultimately.

[Effie Cherotich]

Dalan and Buddy find themselves in another planet after their spaceship crashes. It is always fascinating to experience an author's imagination of a different place from earth.

[Fazzier]

A book containing several positive themes sounds like an insightful read. I like the fact that it contains humor too, and I'm looking forward to reading it. Thank you for this wonderful review!

[Nerea]

Looks like the story is painted with so many themes and humor. I like that the story has no erotic scenes or profanity. I will check it out. Congratulations on being the BOTD.
