Book Review

The Butterfly Effect
How Your Life Matters
By Andy Andrews

In this case, it feels to me as though my two hundred word book review might end up containing more words than the actual book I am reviewing.
I was happy to review another book by Andy Andrews, happy to read more of his inspirational and uplifting world view...but I was left wanting more.
This book is too short.
This book is too vague.
I would have appreciated more than just a passing reference to certain details of certain people’s accomplishments. I know that the many uses for sweet potatoes and peanuts has been discussed before, but further elaboration also belonged in this book.
I would have appreciated a more detailed explanation of the idea of the BUTTERFLY EFFECT. Mr. Andrews mentions that bad movies and certain stories have referred to it, but which bad movies? I am intrigued by this idea, and I wanted to read more about it. It would have been interesting to know.
I can always count on Mr. Andrews to write words of empowerment and blessing. It is the spirit with which he writes that is the true value when you pick up any book written by Andy Andrews.
