Defiantly do not recommend this. I feel like the climax happens I the first chapter. Not like her other books, very disappointing. Too far-fetched, way too drawn out. The book would be half as long without the constant, repeating, minute descriptions... She thumbed through her contact to L, pressed call and held the phone to her ear... Really? Do I need to know exactly how she makes a phone call, every time she does it? Don't waste your time.

This book was awful. Don't waste your time. There was never any real point to it. I couldn't even discern a climax. Kept waiting for something big, jaw-dropping to happen. It never did. Disappointed in this one


What Do You Want to Do Before You Die?
Review Date: 1/17/2014

This book was very disappointing. I was hoping for tons of neat stories of people they we able to help. Instead, there may be 5 1-page narratives about how someone was able to change their life or someone else's. The rest of the book is people's answers of what they want to do before they die. They are presented as one-line answers on one page with some creative illustration. This was pretty much a flip book, stopping a few times to read a full story. While those stories were each really great, the book is not worth getting. Since I got it free here, nothing was lost. I wish that if The Buried Life guys write another book, they include the stories.
