Cheaters Never Prosper
Revisado: 05-20-19
I taught middle school English for 41 years and I always found it interesting that girls would identify with a boy main character (e.g. Tom Sawyer) but boys, while they might like or admire a girl main character, never identify with her. Frank Zaccari, in When the Wife Cheats, speaks for all of us that have suffered the slings and arrows of infidelity. Having been through a very similar experience, I could feel my own heart aching as he tried to "do better" and "do more". I've been there. I grew angry when he was accused of "not valuing" Denise, because I had heard those words before. Frank's use of irony is brilliant - the reader knows what's happening long before the narrator does, and I kept wanting to shout "Tony! She's cheating on you!" No one marries with the intent that they will divorce. Frank has captured the essence of the pain of infidelity and its impact on the family - especially the children. It's the ultimate act of selfishness. I realize that this story is being told from the husband's point of view - unusual on in these circumstances - and its brutal honesty and heartfelt emotion and pain make this a gripping read for anyone. I would hope that anyone contemplating infidelity would read this book. It could save their marriage. Frank Zaccari is a great writer. He sets the reader up and brings them into the story so that we feel like we are part of the narrative. I recommend this book without reservation.

It is the phone call every person lives in fear of receiving. There has been an accident and your loved one is paralyzed. A spinal cord injury is the single most devastating and life altering event. Based on a true story, Michael and Donna were young, successful, in love and planning their life together. That life was radically changed by a tragic car accident. Now a wheelchair user as a quadriplegic, with limited movement, constant infections and multiple surgeries, doctors projected Michael's best case life expectancy to be five years. See how this young man battles through his injury and spends his five years making a lasting impact on hundreds of people. It will make you realize what can be accomplished when a person does not let circumstances dictate their life.

A Hero's Tale
Revisado: 09-05-18
Five Years to Live is based on a true story and one similar to one that my family has experienced. Frank Zaccari is right - that phone call is one that no one ever expects or wants to get, but one that changes your life forever. I've read the book several times and it never fails to bring chills. Listening to the audiobook brought not only chills but tears. (I've never listened to an audiobook before, but plan on doing so from now on!) . Frank captured and related the story of an individual with a spinal cord injury beautifully. He also relates the impact that it has on every aspect of the person's life. Not only does it impact the person involved, but also their family and friends. And like in Michael's case, the individual has to take the lead. There is no one in this world that I respect and admire as much as I do the real life "Michael." He has triumphed over his injury, he leads an incredible life of service to others, he has found a beautiful love, and he leads the way for my son - another Michael.
