You write as if we are sitting in my den, sharing a cup of good joe (coffee) or tea and talking, just talking our way through the book. No anxiety as we talk for we are just good friends talking through these issues." - Alan Wolkenstein "Great book! I got a lot out of it. There is a very clear concept of the book, why you wrote it, and what you had hoped to achieve in writing it. Flourish or Fade provides an overview of a great number of things a person may or may not think of. The Self-Assessment/Reflection/Affirmations/Things to Try are very good ways to sum up each topic section and to provide suggestions on how to make improvements in and of the areas if a reader feels a need to work on anything covered." - Dana Maclean "Angela Gentile's insights are spot-on"- Frank K.
