Not only was this book an easy read, but it was very entertaining. The author has a way of telling these short stories in a comical way, but yet ends each one with an important lesson about life. This book made me laugh and think. Life is short and the lessons we learn along the way mold us into the people we are today. This was a great reminder of living life to the fullest, treasuring the good and the bad memories, the importance of lifelong friends and a reminder to take time to reflect. While the author does not push his opinions onto the reader, he makes you think about why we make it thru some of the unbelievable experiences we go thru in life. I would recommend this book! If you are looking for an easy read that is entertaining and thought-provoking, this is the book for you. I found myself laughing out loud at times and at other times feeling emotionally connected to some of the stories. There are stories in this book that one might find unbelievable, but there are also stories that make the reader reflect on their own experiences. So many of us can relate to the struggles of first-time parents and adjusting from our selfish ways to becoming a partnership with our spouses. Great Book! Don't think twice about getting this, just do it. You wont be disappointed.
Introduction:
Everyone has a different opinion on life, some enjoy it, and some take it as a burden. But no matter how you treat your life, it is a golden platter spiced up with joy, sorrow, and especially crazy stuff! The author of this book says that he has written this book for his children so they can get some sort of lesson from it. I first thought that this book is a self-help book but to my surprise, this book teaches beyond.
Summary:
This book is a compilation of life stories of the author. Many of these stories will make you laugh like a hell, some will leave you astonished, and some will teach you inspiring lessons.
He has talked about the signs and power which is always with us and makes us escape from the serious troubles. Either from the luckiest escape from the serial killer or the massacre in a favorite movie show. Dear author, many of this escapes reminded me the movie ‘Final destination’ (Pun intended)
He has also written some of the stories of his friends and foolish things are done by him. These are amusing to read.
The most interesting part of the book is his interaction with the three seers, whom he has contacted out of the curiosity.
I personally loved the cameo chapter ‘Divorced at 23, 29, and 36’ which is written by author’s wife Ava. The way she has described their relationship is appreciable and this chapter left a huge impact on my mind.
Writing style:
The language is very easy and the narration is super smooth making you finish this book in two sittings.
My perception:
This book is unique; I mean I have never read something like this. There was various time when you will simply smile on the instances. This book will inspire you to get the fullest from your life. This book doesn’t dictate the lessons but makes you feel like someone is sitting beside you and narrating his crazy experiences. The way author has concluded this book is heart-touching. Honestly saying, this book will change your life perception, you will start enjoying little happiness in your life. This book is amazing yet precious, do not miss it!
Fascinating exploration into the world around us all! Funny, spooky and interesting life you have lived! Thank you for sharing!
Even though this is a collection of different stories, this is such smooth reading. I felt like I was sitting around a fire pit with close friends, exchanging stories about our lives. This was a very relatable book and I think anyone who picks it up would enjoy it. Life really does take us on some starng paths, but the choices we make determine the outcome of our lives.
