Thank you for the excellent review of "Choices" by Gary Markman. You mention that there is suspense and humor in this book and that is a plus. There is also an explanation of how a professor type person affected the students. This sounds like a really great book about how to make good choices as you say one of the characters has a mantra that states: “Difficulty and impossible are not synonyms." That is an interesting thought and I think that makes the book enticing to read.

The themes of friendship, love, and self-discovery are woven together beautifully. The writing is engaging, and the humor adds a lovely touch. I highly recommend 'Choices' to anyone looking for a heartwarming and thought-provoking read.

Well written review keep it up."Choices" by Gary Markman is a compelling exploration of the human condition, framed within a narrative that masterfully balances the intricate complexities of decision-making and its profound impacts on our lives. Markman's characters are vividly drawn, each grappling with moral dilemmas that challenge their values and test their resolve. The prose is both thought-provoking and accessible, making it a captivating read for anyone interested in the interplay between fate and free will. Through a series of interconnected stories, Markman skillfully highlights how our choices define us, making "Choices" a poignant reminder of the power we hold in shaping our own destinies.

Several aspects mentioned in this review are of interest. What is our impact on the world? Guiding students or children to understand why certain decisions are better than others and helping them to make good decisions is a worthwhile undertaking. Thank you for your informative review.

This book sounds good but not exactly what I'm looking forward to reading at the moment. I did pick up a thing or two though: difficulty and impossibility are not synonyms.

Gary's ability to arouse readers' empathy is what I find worth commending, because readers will be able to resonate with the characters' circumstances. Thanks for your review.

Gary Markman's "Choices" explores unique themes that prompt inquiries about our world. The ability to make decisions is a gift that allows us to direct the course of our existence. However, I am uncertain as to how to react to the news of Harper's passing. Congratulations on being BOTD. Amazing review.
