Summary: weak narrative limits potential
Comment: Success is an aspiration that all Americans desire. In work, relationships, and daily life we strive to accomplish our goals. Andy Andrews offers insightful and compelling advice in "The Traveler's Gift." He clearly establishes the seven decisions that determine personal success.
The main character David Ponder travels through time to meet important figures that teach him life's lessons. The author, Andrews, chose promising leaders to illustrate his point. Both common people and famous leaders that demonstrate success through the decisions they chose to make.
I was disappointed with the narrative. It was redundant and lacked originality. I became annoyed with positive encouragement that was sappy and unrealistic. The brief moments of unique and inspirational comments were overshadowed by clichés and fluff.
The highly acclaimed review elevated my expectations and left me dissatisfied when I finished. The positive message is admirable and the core advice is insightful, but the execution and plot limited its potential.

Summary: A book that captures the essence of travel.
Comment: This book captures all the senses. The stories capture the reader in a way few books can. When you don't feel like you are the traveller in the story then you long to wish that you were. The stories are exciting, heart warming, funny, and amazing. This book opens the reader to the wonderful world of travel.
Rating: 5
Summary: Made me ache to travel again.
Comment: So many of the stories in this book hit me in the heart, they made me want to get on a plane TOMORROW. Reminded me of the magic of travel, and why I want to be out there wandering the world again.
