Finding the Bright Side: The Art of Chasing What Matters is an excellent and inspiring read. I was pleasantly surprised how good it is. Five stars.

This book was the typical memoir, there weren't any shocking things that stood out or moments discussed that were extremely interesting. It was an ok read, just not overly exciting.

This is a beautiful memoir. It deals with both happy and sad times but always with an optimistic outlook and reaching to God. It was a quick read that will show you how to go about always "Finding the Bright Side".

I would like to thank Netgalley and the publisher for providing me with a copy free of charge. This is my honest and unbiased opinion of it.

Shannon Bream gives us a glimpse into her inspiring life, one based on faith and hard work. She talks about being motivated to study hard and achieve high goals as a student from grade school through college, law school and into adulthood, having a competitive nature. She came to rely on her Heavenly Father when things did not go as planned. Shannon is a great storyteller with a genuineness that shows through with her honesty and candid openness about her struggles, moments of despair, feelings of being different at times in this world we live in today but always with her eye on God, giving Him the glory. We see her lovely personality and high moral character in how she approaches all areas of life. A Florida girl, born and raised, she loves football (FSU) and married a handsome baseball player from Pennsylvania that she met while at Liberty University. Her story is told in a way has one smiling with her and sad for her at times but with a positive outlook. This is an easy read that flows smoothly and quickly.
