Sometimes books are begun with a fabulous idea. That, I think, is the way this one began. Here’s the idea: A man sells therapeutic books from his boat in Paris. How can you go wrong? you might ask. Well, you can go wrong when the great idea is all there is. The story itself is quite predictable; I knew from page one where the story was going. Quite disappointing.

What an amazing book! There are so many truths about life, people, and situations in this book that I just wanted to write down passages and quotes from it for myself just to remember the great concepts. The characters are unique and interesting and the reader finds a lot to connect with in the many personalities shown here. The plot is very interesting and the emotions displayed make you think as you read it. Definitely a good read!
