[F.D. Gross · Rating 4 out of 5]

One does not have to be religious in order to understand and enjoy this book. Fundamental ideals are visited in this inspiring tale of mysterious encounters. Ever felt like your life was upside down or running around in dead-end circles? Jonathan Roy’s, The Bench, helps readers explore a new take on life by helping those in need of guidance, whether spiritual or not. The story unfolding within its pages captivates the mind and can be applied to those who have experienced hardships in life.

Explore a peek into the life of Dan, a man who loves his family, would do anything for them, yet spends all his time working day in, day out, trying to make ends meet in a cut throat world. One day Dan meets a mysterious person that changes his life forever.

At times raw emotion emerged from the pages and it forced me to ask the question, what is it truly I want out of life. I gave the story 4 out of 5 stars for its originality and creative outlook on what it means to go for your dreams.
