I love this challenge that is being hosted by Kathleen Daniels, Probate & Trust Specialist, especially since a friend of mine recently wrote a book and I am so excited and happy for her success.  The amount of high acclaim the book is receiving is phenomenal and even though I am not much of a reader, I ordered a copy.  I actually even read the book and it was such an easy read.  The book kept me captivated throughout every chapter and I couldn't put it down.  I think if I had had the time, I would have been able to read it in its entirety in one sitting.  Even with only having an hour here or an hour there, it only took me a few days to finish it.  I can certainly see why all of these other big-time authors are giving such high praise to the book, it certainly lived up to the hype.  Actually, it exceeded the hype for me since I am not an avid reader, yet it kept me entertained.

 

After reading the book, I felt like maybe I could become a reader so I attempted to read a different book, but that book put me to sleep after a couple of pages, so I know that I am just not meant to be an avid reader at this time in my life.  It also further solidified in my mind what a great book Falling is for readers.

 

The premise of the book is:  You just boarded a flight to New York.  There are one hundred and forty-three other passengers onboard.  What you don’t know is that thirty minutes before the flight your pilot’s family was kidnapped.  For his family to live, everyone on your plane must die.  The only way the family will survive is if the pilot follows his orders and crashes the plane.  Enjoy the flight.

 

I know that Patricia Feager, MBA, CRS, GRI,MRP has read the book and I loved reading her review of it previously.  Check out her blog since her posts are always worthwhile to read.

 

The book has even been on the NY Times Best Seller Bestseller list since its debut, so it is not just me saying how good the book is, haha.

 

T. J. Newman, a former bookseller turned flight attendant, worked for Virgin America and Alaska Airlines from 2011 to 2021. She wrote much of Falling on cross-country red-eye flights while her passengers were asleep. She lives in Phoenix, Arizona. Falling is her first novel.

 

Check it out and if you are a book reader, order it and I guarantee you will love it.

Hello Brian,  

Congratulations to you for reading a book given you are not big on reading. 

Congrats to your friend for publishing her first book. 

I must confess this is not the kind of book I would read.  

Thank you for participating in the August Book Review Challenge.

This book will do that for you Will Hamm and I know that because it did it for me and I don't really enjoy reading much at all, haha.

That is a great idea Rocky Dickerson and I know she would love it.  She has a birthday coming up, right?

Kathleen Daniels, Probate & Trust Specialist I think that you would enjoy this book even with it not being the type of book you enjoy.  I did in fact leave a comment in the challenge post with a link to this post, it was a sub-comment to my original comment, will that not suffice?

Hi Brian- I do want to read this book when I know that I won't be flying any time soon!!!  It sounds like a page turner. I've had books that I couldn't get into so maybe you'll find the right genre for you.

Oh yes, I read this book and the premise was terrifying, much like the planes that hit the twin towers and the pentagon Brian. Thrillers are exciting and hit the imagination!

Good morning, Abby Stiller and I don't want to spoil it for you, I think you should read the book yourself.  I know you will enjoy it and it will keep you captivated until the very end!

Oh, you have us in such suspense, Brian! I can't wait to read this book. Perhaps I'll get my bookclub to read it as one of our featured books. 

 

Congratulations to TJ Newman! I love that she spent her 'down time' writing. The topic makes you wonder if she had a fear of this happening as a result of her profession - and she simply let her imagination run wild as she put pen to paper!

I can attest that it is a great read and such a thrilling story Debe Maxwell, CRS and I am guessing that it is on the radar for your book club since it has been on the NY Times Bestseller list for a while now!  You will definitely have to let me know what you think about it after you read it yourself.
