"A Life Worth Dreaming About" reviews

Captivating!”

--- Linda

Inspiring!”

--- Scott B.

A feel good book.

--- Hannah F.

“I like the easy, accessible style.”

--- Julia Forster, author of “Shadow Jumper”

“Extremely intriguing.”

--- Lisa Lickel, author of five novels, including “The Map Quilt”

“Good straight forward storytelling and the hook at the end of Chapter 1 works well, when we think the excitement is over. ... The writing is quite good.”

--- Tod Schneider, author of “The Lost Wink”

“It was an enjoyable read. Once I got into it, it kept my interest to see where it was going.”

--- Jill Badzinski, former editor West Bend (Wis.) Daily News

“I like the story. Carl reminds me of Patrick Bateman in ‘American Psycho.’ They are both loners and have a fondness for expensive clothes. I like the description in the first chapters of his interaction, or rather lack of it with his colleagues. I think it's good.”

--- Maria Gibbons, author of “Past, Present, Future?”

Here is the latest review for "A Life Worth Dreaming About:"

http://www.amazon.com/A-Life-Worth-Dreaming-about/product-reviews/1468543008/ref=dp_top_cm_cr_acr_txt?showViewpoints=1

Dettmann is a talented journalist foremost, and his reporting skills occasionally make his debut novel read like an article. Readers will find the bones of a good story, that of Carl Robertson, who faces a medical crisis and his guardian angel in order to find himself, underneath the layers of a multitude of characters who surround him at his fancy ad exec job. By wading through the opening of the man who couldn't be bothered to stop long enough to see the people around him, readers will come across an intriguing tale of second chances. Don't we all long to "re-do" those things that haunt us?

Each person has a dream of the perfect life. Carl got to choose his. Those who enjoy stories like Heaven Can Wait, will have a good time watching Carl go back and change the disaster that was his life. --- Lisa Lickel
