Delightful soul-boosting book May 6, 2008
This cool little book is packed with inspirational advice for dealing with the aftermath of adversity. I highly recommend it for anyone who has been faced with a major ordeal. It'll help you put a positive spin on negative issues. Plus, it's beautifully designed.
Great Stuff April 29, 2008
The thing that Salmansohn does that so few authors do these days is synthesize the best of what the thought leaders are saying and thinking and putting it into succinct little chunks that are rewarding and enlightening to read. And then she adds her own thoughts and feelings into the mix to deliver a powerful, emotional yet entertaining ride into a better me or you. This is without a doubt her best book yet. The chapters are developed intelligently, each one is a breeze to read and the graphics really add to the user experience of this content. The cool red rubber cover is the bomb! Go ahead and buy one for yourself and some more for your friends because we all have something we're bouncing back from these days, right?
