I am surprised that on the Amazon site most readers have rated the book 4 stars or above. I am afraid that I only rate it 1 star.
I received the book from a friend without the corresponding CD song written and performed by Tim McGraw. Someone kept the CD, and donated the book to the senior center. My friend was cleaning out the senior center library, and donated the book to me. So just to make it clear, I am rating the book, not the song.
The song was wonderful! Lyrics are very moving and powerful.
As an author myself, I know that sometimes you are in love with your own words, but to have a CD and a book on the same subject is just too much of a good thing. The book just reiterates the song, and is very short and just mostly repeats the lyrics of the song with some pictures included. It kind of acts like the record jacket. For you young’uns that’s the paper that the vinyl record came in, and sometimes it had the lyrics printed on it, and had other inspirational notes that followed the subject of the song.
It did have 2 lines that resonated with me however, “We are all terminal.” And “If you want to hunt tigers, you have to go where the tigers are.” As an author of a job hunting book in my words I thinks it means, “If you want to be a ski instructor, you can’t live in the desert.” In other words, “Go do what you want to do before it’s too late.”
Just buy the CD without the book, or bring records, and record jackets back!
