While this isn't the type of book I would normally choose to read, it looks like a good inspirational read. From the sample I read, I could see that Dr. Ross has an engaging style of writing that prompts me to want to read more. I'll add this to my reading list. Thank you for the review.

Hope Rises by Dr. Randy Ross is an enlightening book about hope, and the beauty of the book lies in the wise sayings of great intellectuals written at the beginning of every chapter.

The beginning of the book was interesting to me. I especially enjoyed the speech at the beginning by Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.; I have not read it since I was in middle school. Dr. Ross certainly does a great job of keeping up with the current times. Congrats to him on BOTD! :)

Amazing Book and book review!!!
Personally proven per author's experience and others attested too, there is HOPE.
A great read for everyone during this time of quarantine when BOOKS are our only means of escape, of viewing the outside world and RISING above hapless redundant bad news.
HOPE RISES after reading this book.

I agreed with your review. In my opinion, the author pointed much at business, relationship and self motivation during pandemic. But there had many other issues that can make you suicide yourself. That's family, financial, foods lack out, no support and etc. For me, my hopes, future, dream and Everything light up to me back since November 2020. The time when COVID-19 reduced at my country. Who knows there had a bigger problem than COVID-19? Since Feb 1 coup at my country, my life was in danger and lived in unsecured condition here without money and support. So, will you keep your hope rises if you lived in here like I did.

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting book on hope and how hope is a great strategy for when unexpected issues and problems arise such as how businesses and relationships were affected by the pandemic. It might be worth a second look. Well done.

Strong people know that they are finite. So wise finite people turn to the power, provision, and knowledge of the infinite.”


Sometimes the bravest thing to do is to acknowledge that there is someone stronger and braver than you are and that you can lean on that person/being. I appreciate how you enumerate the benefits of reading this book. Thank you.
