Books on family bonds and friendship have a way of appealing to the reader's emotions because it is relatable. This book seems really interesting. Congratulations on BOTD!

Thank you for your wonderful review. From the sample, I thought it was just about boxing, but your review explained that it entails a lot more. It sounds like an interesting book with lots of life lessons. I think I might add it to my list of books to read.

Tony who had it all, and involved in an accident all of sudden must be very tough for him. I applaud his family for their support. Sound an interesting read. Good review.

This book was sad and very stereotypical of these kinds of people. Not everyone is like him though, so a lot of things mentioned in the book is not true. In the end it was a good read. I just wish a lot of the stereotypes would stop making their culture look bad.

Such an inspiring BOTD, "The life of Tony Marceano". At different point in time, we encounter certain experiences that can affect our line of reasoning, our Psychological, spiritual life. In-fact, I realise that we are drawn closer to our creator who we draw strength from. In the case of Tony, the family supported him to ensure he has a speedy recovery. Satisfactory review.

Thank you so much for this review…the title and front page weren’t grabbing my attention at all and your review changed my decision to actually read this when I get a chance!

While I like when characters are dynamic, I’m not sure about reading a book in which the character starts off like such a…Gary Stu (i.e. too perfect). Once Tony starts changing, I might like it, but I don’t know if pre-accident Tony would get on my nerves too much. Thank you for the helpful review.

Usually themes love, hope and dedication don't also involve a murder angle. Sounds quite unique. Will definitely read this. Thanks for such a detailed review.

Tony's life is perfect until he encounters an accident that changes his life completely. I can relate to Tony as I have been in similar situations. I want to read this book and find what is the author's message. Thanks for the review. Congrats on the BOTD!

I really love this book. How aspects of Tony Merceano's life and how one thing changed someone's life revealed quite a lot of me. Although not so similar, I drowned through this review. I'm so proud of how Tony handled it all so well. And Tony is very lucky that no matter what the situation is, it does not reduce the love of his family. It's touching, I really want to read it. Thank you for your honest and great review.

The story of Tony Marceano seems like a typical story at first, because he had the life he ever wanted then an accident occurs that changed his life. But when I found out that this book has a resemblance to the life of the author, I suddenly want to read it. Thank you for your wonderful review.

As someone who does not 'fit in' and has never felt wholly accepted by society, I am curious as to how this "acceptance" experienced by the main character can be both beneficial and disadvantageous to him. I'm guessing that the fear of not being able to satisfy people's expectations of you is one of those disadvantages. Congratulations to the author for BOTD!
