Is it just me or many of you could also related to Matt's life just by reading this review? Thank you for such a brilliant and well structured review. Books that depicts real like events what people can relate to have always been at the top of my shelf. I appreciate such marvelous works.

I am an avid historical fiction fan! And especially when there is romance involved! This sounds like a good book to add to my want to read list! Thank you for the excellent review!

There is nothing wrong with a book about self-discovery. It sounds like Matt has a good heart and is trying to do the right thing in all facets of his life, but sometimes, he has a hard time taking the plunge. I hope that he can find a job where he is treated well and perhaps, experience some romance. Thanks for the lovely review.

Matt's pilot job seems exciting; island-hopping in the Caribbean sounds inviting

. But I guess everyone gets the Monday blues. Thanks for your great review!

I love historical fiction. I’m curious with regard to this book, what relevance does the title have to the topic? Obviously the character is a pilot, however I’m not really seeing a connection with the title to the book. Nice job on a thorough review.

It’s always interesting to see real world events in history set to fiction. It seems like an interesting book with some romance as well.

This is a fictional book about the life of a commercial pilot and the challenges he faces in life and his career. Congratulations BOTD!

I love learning historical events in entertaining ways, and I feel the approach is more human than on a history book or a documentary.
I also applaud what you mentioned about Matt growing as a character along with the plot. Characters that remain stagnant are usually boring.
Great review!

This sounds like a leisurely and educational read. I like the incorporation of romance and culture; romance always lightens a book.

A historical fiction story set in the late 1900s. It has some historical political contents. The main character Matt is interesting as he goes through his self-discovery journey. The book explores themes such as friendship, faith, love, and endurance. It sounds quite intriguing.

A perfect example of how fictional books can be just as if not more educative as compared to non-fiction books.

Not really sure if this book's storyline is to my liking, but since it is gifted to us for free, I believe I should give it a try anyway. You never know, I can be pleasantly surprised by the content))

I could relate with Matt's character cause I'm one to leave situations that I don't appreciate. I love that he had enough courage to leave his first job. It will be interesting to find out how he deals with the challenges of the second job. Interesting plot, great review.
