Frankly, I couldn't stand Sarah. She's the selfish person who "blocks the box" at the intersection, complains at Starbucks when the line doesn't go fast enough to suit her and cuts you off on the street or highway at any opportunity. I really didn't care about her "redemption". Her "death" didn't change the way she thought, which was "me, first."

This book was just what I needed to read at the time I picked it up. I had no idea when I started that it was Christian fiction. The story is a modern day adaptation of "A Christmas Carol". And even though the story is an old one, the message is still a good one. Pass this one on to someone that might need to read it again.

Any Minute was a quick read for me in which I enjoyed. The story illustrates how many times it's our fears and insecurities that drive our behavior unbeknownst to ourselves. We assume we're just trying to be our best but in actuality we're attempting to make up for bad experiences in our childhood and prove to others that we're worthy-worthy of their love, admiration, and respect. That quest for Sarah almost resulted in her losing her family but through her accident she was able to turn herself around.

This book was fast paced and exciting. It was better than I expected. A good story abt. the truly important things in life not the most pressing ones. I had trouble putting it down..

This is an excellent read. Life is always in a hurry, but any minute it can change; any minutes you can change. This book was very hard to put down. I do not think you will be disappointed with this book.

An interesting book that has a big build up to it and then a conclusion. The ending is the typical one that you would expect from this type of book, so that was very nice. A very, quick, easy read.

Sarah Haper seems to have it all - a great job, great family, beautiful house. But as we learn more about her life, it's coming apart at the seams. Sarah has no balance in her life - job comes first and everything else is a distant second.
Everything comes to a crisis when Sarah tries to beat a drawbridge and ends up driving into the water. At this point, the book turns into a combination of It's a Wonderful Life and A Christmas Carol.
I didn't really like the supernatural aspect to this book, and the ending was too predictable. But overall a good read.

Thought provoking novel co-written by Christian Minister Joyce Meyer. Good message for all harried mom's who feel pulled in many different directions and spend each day muti-tasking and feeling guilty with our choices.
Easy to read, easy to get into, and definitely will keep your attention. Highly recommend!

Very good book ! A real quick read that will hold your interest!
This was a book I couldn't wait to read since it was by Joyce Meyer.
It was a good story. Not as great as expected, but still worth the read.

I enjoyed this book! It is so down to earth and true to life!
After reading the books description, I had high hopes. This book was just okay. One would think after a near death experience and truly wanting to change the course of your life, that you would make some significant changes. I'm not sure the main character did that. The ending was rather disappointing. The whole reason she went off the bridge in the first place was a little unrealistic. This is one of those books that does make you think about your life afterwards but still comes up short with any substance as a novel.
