Lift Decide Now


I see that I am in the minority of readers but I thought that this book was mere tripe. And derivative tripe to boot.
If you don't like "inspiration" or the overly sentimental, you will not like this. Corrigan's friends and family members will love it, of course--it's the kind of material that one does want to write for family.

And I understand those who are astounded that the book costs so much money. But would you really want more? The thesis of the book is simple: the author loves the miracle of motherhood and she loves her daughters. Like a lot of people, she also has to contend with serious illness and a death in the family at the same time that she's bringing up her young children. The book might have been more interesting if she had written more about the pain of the difficulties, but as a letter to her children, I think she wants to spare them the essential anguish that people go through when it comes to death and disease.

If you want to "feel good" without taking Prozac, you might like this book. It has the same mind-numbing effects. And it probably works for a fair percentage of readers.Get more detail about Lift.
