    The Present by Spencer Johnson really delivers...

    I heard about this book at work, it was a suggested read for anyone that was having a bad day, week, year, etc. I originally bought for a family member that was having a hard time getting over something that was very emotionally draining - but before I gave it to that person, I read it myself. I loved it. I'm actually going to get another copy to keep for myself. It helped me put things into perspective on a daily basis. It narrows down how you feel right down to a specific moment and helps you to enjoy your life to the fullest when you need to enjoy it the most. I would recommend this book to anyone no matter what your state of mind. Happy reading!!!

    Easy Read

    This book was an easy read. Read it the day I received it. I'm a stay home mom/student, so even though I've had years of corporate experience, the story wasn't relevant to me. The content is okay. The idea to stay in the present was well worth the $3.50 I paid for the book. But I was expecting something a bit deeper.

    I thought this book was a great read.

    This book had wonderful incite on how to make your life happier and more successful. Some of the information was kind of common sense but it put it into a better perspective so that the reader could really get a good understanding of what the author was trying to put out there. I recommend it to anyone looking for a quick but very educational read.
