I enjoyed reading The Plane to Lisbon so much I found a way to read it in less than 3 weeks.  Which is quite a feet for a stay at home mother of 2 energetic boys.  In between transporting, grocery shopping, feeding, cleaning and playing with my children I always found time to read a few pages everyday.  It was a great way to get away without hiring a babysitter.  For someone who's travel outside of the US consists of Mexico for a day and the Bahamas as a young child, it was a way to explore other countries through the authors entertaining stories.  It helped me make a list of places to go on vacation.

I, like the author, am a movie buff.  However, we are from different generations, so some of the actors I had to look up to know why they are famous.  I found a lot of them I knew by face but not by name.  Which made me want to make more of an effort to see actors in person.  Which, living where I do is a possibility since lots a movies are filmed here.  Hope you will enjoy this book as much as I did.

I really enjoyed this book.  It was well written with a very interesting idea of the future.  It makes you wonder if, at sometime in the future, this could really happen.  Well done, Holly!

Dreamers, optomists and leaders with a bit of selfishness can lead to change. The world progresses as it repeats itself.

The Author, Roger Uvyn is an optimist.  I like optimists!  In this essay, Mr. Uvyn sets forth ideas that challenge the status quo.  On page 72, he states "This book could be preparing you for a radical change in the near future" and the pages that come before prove it.  I enjoyed Mr. Uvyn's view of an optimistic future that doesn't include zombies and an apocalypse.  In conclusion, I say to a friend, "See you in time."

A thoroughly enjoyable and timely tale with a forecast on the medical and sociological possibilities the future may hold in store for us.

This is a book written for those of us who have dreams and hopes and wishes and at the same time live normal every day lives.  Alyshia Ochse shows us a way to lead to fulfillment of those same desires.  It is a simple easy way up to the point that I asked myself why I didn't think of doing this a long time ago.
Her book is not a long theoretical idea, it is not a new age journey.  It helps us to organize our lives around a dream a month.  Even if that dream does not come completely true, it shows us the direction in which we can continue developing ourselves.
I recommend reading this short booklet.  If you don't feel it can help you - you most certainly know others who will enjoy following her ideas.  They are so do-able and realistic.
And, Alyshia is contibuting the proceeds to help children in the Domincan Republic which makes reading the book and giving it as a gift a real delight.

Very interesting story of a  possible future, seen through the eyes of a man who ages slowly and is brought into the future bit by bit, not a lot of action, but definately provokes a lot of thought about the " could be, might be" future of the human race.

A good near future book. Will resonate well, with teens and young adults, and anyone young at heart.. Believable premise and well drawn characters . The plot moves along quickly and makes you hungry for more.

Very good for anyone that wants an alternative future for mankind.  Not post apocalyptic nor altruistic future here but a way of thinking that changes how you want the future to be.  Just give a chance to the reading and you will enjoy it.
