A Life Worth Living

Summary: Best book i read this summer
Review: I highly recommend this book about Aichi. The story tells about how our hero's family is torn apart from one emotional event to another... with each one raising the tension to a palpable level. Not only that but it's not a prisoner of setting, the author moves you from one area to another, with each scene so real you swear you're there. Some of the best descriptions I've ever read were in this book to the point that I literally had to pause and reread some lines. I loved the characters, and empathetized with them through everything, and when they cried and laughed, i found mylsefl laughing along with them.

I think out of everything about this book though it was that after each chapter i'd promise to put it down and go to sleep, but the next chapter was only a few pages.... before I knew it I was turning the last page with a sigh of relief and frustration....I wished it was a little longer, and that the journey didn't end.

This will be a great find for almost any reader!

Summary: Has Mark Twain or Guy De Maupassant been reborn?
Review: In a "Life Worth Living," Todd Goldwyn exhibits a profound understanding of the human journey filled with tragedy, ecstasy, and compassion as the young Aichi encounters many twists and surprises in his struggle for survival against the elements and primitive culture. The pace picks up rapidly in short chapters that propel the reader forward wandering what will happen next.
