The Two Brains of Book Reviewers
“I would be lying if I said I did not cry. The stories remind you of all the things you forget to pay attention to. The book (Letters) are so well written. It is like poetry, but you can understand… reading this kind of book, which is a rarity, remind me of the beauty that is expressed in words.”

“I found myself extremely emotional throughout this entire story. For everyone reading this review, I implore you to take a deep breath, calm your mind and give yourself time to read this incredible story. I also think this book should be a required read for all high school students.” – Stephanie Lasley, from The Kindle Book Review
“Deeply immersive . . . authentic . . . emotionally potent.”–Kirkus Reviews
“…the book is deeply immersive, and it has a strong sense of atmosphere that renders such narrative details hardly necessary. The narrator’s feelings—about the life he’s lived and the death he faces—come off as authentic, and readers will enjoy following him through it.”
“Every so often, there are books that grab you at the beginning and hold you spellbound to the finish. Love and appreciation of nature, as well as respect for humankind, leap from the pages so that each reader will ponder his or her own belief systems while wondering how anyone would choose to be alone at the moment of death. A powerful and poignant read for all.” — Reviewed by Karen Pirnot for Readers’ Favorite
