Thanks again for stopping by, Sarah Immanuel. I agree, it could have been better!

Lovely review. This is exactly my kind of book. Too bad it has a flat narration.

Thanks Mercy Bolo - you might enjoy it, I can imagine others would enjoy it more who like a different style than me!

Latest Review: The Longfellah's Son: An Almost True Irish Story by Michael Cassidy

Great review. It feels a good read, with one's gradual rise up the social ladder. Advise from parents is also a lingering subject not to be ignored.

The book portrays the realities of life. It is not feasible to lead a predetermined life that may be represented by a mathematical formula. It provides a lesson that people should leave easy allowing for any eventualities of environment. I recommend it for those with high expectations of future.

Life is cause and effect; that's why the title of the book is quite appealing. Besides, it's easy to relate to the main character, for my people want to triumph in life and/or improve their lifestyle. Thanks for the review!

Latest Review: The Fourth Kinetic by Brady Moore

I used to enjoy novels like this, but my patience and tolerance have worn off through the years. I think that mystery you kept hinting at in your review will be worth the risk though. I hope.
