Likened to a Chicken Soup book, but it's not. The authors are mostly inspirational speakers, not as varied as the Chicken Soup collections, so they had a lot of sameness to them. So we indeed quite inspiring. The quotes at the beginning of the chapters spoke to me the most. When I bought the book, someone had left a newspaper clipping that related to the content of the book inside. I left that for the next reader to find. ( )
