Review title: a shallow and cliche- ridden read
Product review: I've realized that the reviews on Amazon are not totally reliable although I love to read them, because people are more likely to review a book they've loved than one they've hated. So, I want to put in my two cents on this overly sentimental and poorly written book to balance the scales. This book made me cringe with embarrassment for the writer. A friend who read it, returned it to the bookstore and demanded her money back, she found it so poorly written. Reader's Digest articles share the author's philosophy but are usually better written and more original. I did manage to finish it (it's mercifully short) as I kept hoping to find the magic that so many others seemed to find in it - but it wasn't there.
