At least it's a very appealing due to the fact its rather genuine in its form. Might consider this one for review myself, so I switched from not interested to possible read in matter of mins, mostly thanks to the review. One more example of how wrong it is to judge book by its cover.

Latest Review: Beneath the Muscle by Lauren Powers

Post by Ma Cheryll »

I love how this Book, Burn Zones by: Jorge P. Newbery, depicts Life's Reality and how it motivates it's Readers, all of us, to exert more, going beyond the challenges and struggles that life situation brings. It rallies all of us to strive harder to achieve our life aspirations and be a "Better Version" of ourselves. To top it all, I love it's Title! With my husband being a cycling enthusiast, I can relate to how one feels when we say "burn zones" :o I think this Book stayed true to its Title with of the kind of Story that it identified with. I'd like to say Thanks to Author Jorge for sharing this wonderful blessing of a Book and congrats on the #BOTD! Thanks for the great Review as well :D I added this to my Want to Read Bookshelf and grabbed a copy of the Sample on Kindle too :techie-studyingbrown: Thank you again :tiphat:

This book is like Cain and Abel. Start very low to rise to the top only takes a persistent mind

This is a nice review. The title is very good. I was looking for this book when I saw its Spanish translation and I am glad that it exists. I will consider reading this too. Thanks.

Personally I think is a great decision to make a book in Spanish also for the Latin american speaking people that looks for inspirational books in their native language. Not a fan of inspirational books but I claim it in amazon and won a copy. Thanks and congratulations.

A rags-to-riches story, one fully deserving of attention. A young boy at the age of 7 starts business and after that he faces challenges which with time he overcomes. When you read a book like this, it may seem fictitious, but knowing that something like that actually happened gives you incredible strength.

This is a very good review, just like a summary of the whole book. I think one should be able to give short narration of the book without reading through the whole pages if this review is red. I caption the story "from grass to grace". Burn Zones by Jorge P. Newbery

It can't be simply taken as the inspirational book, but it is something that accounts the hurdles that Jorge has have to go through to reach where he is right now. It sometime shows the real face of society as well. I'll definitely wanna read it.
A wonderful book and a cup of black tea in my hands make my day joyful! :tiphat:
