Non fiction books are not my cup of tea but the book in general seems interesting especially when the author shares her stories and the lessons she learned from all that experience. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!

From the chapter that I read, I could tell this is a lovely little book. The author's writing style is simple yet elegant, and her ability to tell a story is exceptional. Congratulations to Ms. Shprintz on her accomplishment and being awarded BOTD!

Believing in oneself and in others is definitely key to success. For someone who grew up poor and without a supportive home environment, having to achieve such success is truly inspiring. Thank you for your well-written review.

Wow! That's a new one for me. Investing in people and recognizing their unique abilities sounds promising. An example could be investing in a good artiste. I am interested in this book. Thanks for the amazing review and congrats BOTD!

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting self-help book utilizing the author's experiences to demonstrate the benefits of having someone to believe in you and how believing in yourself can make you successful. It might be worth a second look. Well done.

Thanks for the great review. I like the way Shprintz wrote her story in a manner that is both simple and friendly. It makes the book enjoyable. And that advice at the end of every lesson makes the book more admirable. Thanks, BOTD.

A very nice and brief review at the same time. This is the important time when some words and some lines express what is inside our meanings.

This all sounds great, but unfortunately based on my experience I don't believe that "incredible power of believing in yourself and the indomitable power of having someone else believe in you" is able to overcame all circumstances. It is a bit naive view of life in my opinion and reality is nothing if not practical.
