Search - The Other Wes Moore: One Name, Two Fates

An interesting story about two people with same names and similar childhoods, but I think the comparisons were overrated. According to the author, their lives deviated based on seemingly small decisions and luck. But their backgrounds, support structure, and core morals were much different so it made sense to me how their stories turned out. I felt as if the author was talking about his own accomplishments too much, giving himself a pat on the back. I would have liked more analysis and interview excerpts.

This is such a good book from the standpoint of considering the butterfly effect . One decision, one action, one time of having someone caring just a little bit can make all the difference in the world.
