This is a highly emotional and entertaining book. The closeness Jim has with his family is truly inspirational. They have been through a lot of  heartache within the family and this shows how you can pull together and appreciate what you have. Many times, while he was on his canoe travels through the Boundary Waters, I could so connect with the feelings he was experiencing. This is a must-read!

This book is emotional and not just tearful but truly full of emotion. The sadness, regret, elation, and excitement was so real my heart and my head were fully engaged. It was a book that kept me up to the wee hours just wanting to see how it all played out.

Well written with lots of emotion that pulls you into the story. This book is well worth your time as you get to know the main characters and villains of this book. It is an entertaining read.

Need you for Always was a very entertaining read.  It is about two people who have both been through traumatic events in their lives, both do everything for everyone else, and need to learn how to let someone else into their heart and lives.  I loved Emi's character and could relate to her in that she would do anything for her family.  She wants so much to protect her little sister and give her the mom she hasn't had while trying to support her father who is struggling to get past the death of his wife.  This causes her to build up emotional walls yet she is still doing everything that is asked of her by numerous people in her life.

Then you have Dax, a recovering Ranger who doesn't know how to fit back into civilian life after 15 years of service and really just wants to hide out from the world.  He comes across as a very loving and caring person but again has built up walls against letting someone too close as that would force him into life again.

My biggest problem with this book is how quickly it ended.  I really expected an epilogue to tell us how it would all wrap up.  Yes, you get your happy ending but there were unresolved issues.  Emi was just to take part in a contest at the end, but we don't know that she won it.  Dax's new job and the recruit he's working with, is that finally successful?  I hate that I won't either know how this resolves or have to wait and read yet another book which will most likely just drop tidbits here or there to tell us the answers.

Gavin fights his feelings for Maria in order to protect himself and her. I found myself sobbing at some points in this book. Very emotional but a great story and a great book!

This was a fun, interesting and emotional read.  I enjoyed it very much while I laughed and learned at the same time.

This book can be defined in two words: roller coaster. The characters in this book go through the ringer. A dark past haunts one, a desire to have a connection drives the other. This book has tons of ups and downs, laughs and cries, and bumps and bruises. If you're in the mood for a book that will pull at your heart strings and make you want to hug and kick the characters at the same time this is a book you will enjoy. While the characters have issues you do in up falling for them and their hardships. I'm not usually one for these kinds of books but even I couldn't put it down and there was a part of me that had to see it through to the end and I'm glad I did. You will either love this book by the end or hate it but hey, that's half the fun, right?

Dick is one powerful writer.  I read 4 stories back to back.  I laughed, cried, laughed, and cried.  I was tired by the time I read the 4 chapters.  I felt like I had been through an emotional washing machine wringer.

I truly love the chapter on Men are Vespas and women are Valentines, but then again, I loved almost all the chapters.

Fun book, very entertaining.  I would highly recommend this book. These are creatively uplifting real life adventures.

This is a most beautiful story.  It is a very emotional book.  Nate had lost his best friend, and Jewel had lost her brother, but their love for each other can help them both to heal.  I have to say that that there were lots of tears while I was listening to this book, but I felt like it helped me to heal too.  With the powerful combination of Melissa Foster and her outstanding writing and B.J. Harrison and his outstanding narration, it definitely earns its five stars.

This book isn't all sad, so don't let the title of my review turn you off.  It is, however, very emotional.  It's written so beautifully that you feel everything Enzo is feeling and you find yourself getting sad, angry, happy and everything in between.

I happen to love auto racing and I grew up around cars my whole life, so that was a little bonus that I wasn't expecting.  But even if you're not a car enthusiast, the analogies between life and racing are really great.  Stay focused, prepare for the unknown and never look behind you.

For me, the best part about this book, was the way Enzo makes you look at human beings.  He has such a simple, yet genuine, point of view that makes you stop and think.  Humans are pretty awful to each other sometimes, and as a dog, he questions our everyday behavior.  (Why do we hijack each other's stories instead of just listening to one another?)

Before reading this, I hadn't picked up a fiction book in years.  I've been engrossed in academia and text books and never felt I had time.  But I finished this book in two days because I couldn't put it down.  I would recommend this book to anyone, of any age.  I hope to have a dog like Enzo someday.  My cats probably aren't as thoughtful.

I jump, you jump. This was a highly emotional read. It was definitely a difficult one to get through but the author does a great job with the story as a whole and I loved the ending, it worked for them.

The Sword Swallower and the Chico Kid by Gary Robinson is highly entertaining, yet there are places that really touched me on an emotional level. As we say in my circle, "It got me in my feels." Once I began reading, I found it difficult to put down.

I enjoyed the interesting characters. Gary Robinson did a wonderful job at making them come alive. Many times I had to stop and giggle, or shake my head, at some of the antics. I even shed a tear once or twice.

One of my take-a-ways from this book is: No matter how different we may seem on the outside; No matter the difference in the worlds we come from;

Deep down we all really want the same thing. To love and be loved, unconditionally.

I personally can't say there was anything I didn't like about the book. Yet I can say that I would only recommend it for mature readers' due to adult situations, extensive drug and alcohol use, graphic scenes and language. Nothing too harsh for adults, but not for children or teenagers.

This was a highly emotional book that I read in one sitting.  I simply couldn't put it down as it captured my undivided attention from the first chapter until the last.  It's not a book I'll likely forget for a very long time.  'The Law of Moses' was an exquisite read about love, loss, forgiveness, prejudice,  second chances and so much more.  The book is written and edited to perfection. This author fascinated me with the power of her words. Amazing book and well deserving of 5 stars.
