Straying from my traditional method of reviewing. This book is a bit different.
This was the first book I chose to read for my summer reading assignment due to how easy it looked when it came to it being lessons. I did not hate it entirely.
I find that memoir type writing can be overbearing sometimes. It's as though I'm being forced to connect with the author's experiences when they just don't apply to me.
God Never Blinks was not bad though. I found a good portion of the lessons good, just not for me at the moment. I believe this book would be great for a senior in college; someone who's nearing the end of school. I also think having some faith may help a lot of the lessons connect more.
I am no longer practicing, so this book has moments where I just do not feel as strongly as Brett does. However, it isn't a very big part of the book, which I think helps make the lessons more meaningful.
Overall, it was a simple read. Maybe I might hold these lessons closer to my heart when I'm older.
