Summary: Superb!!
Comment: Richard Paul Evans has once again written a story that cannot help but touch all our lives. A "Perfect Day", depicts Evans at his best. In brief, the story is about a truly happily married couple with a young daughter who struggle to make ends meet. By means of some unfortunate events that occur, they hit pay dirt and their lives are transformed and so is their happiness. The story often makes the reader try and understand what life and love really mean.
When you think you know how the story will end, guess again because you will be delightfully surprised by it's twist.
A great book to read and a great book to reflect!!!

He loses his job and his dream becomes a reality. Fame and fortune come and changes in his life begin to whirlwind.
A stranger comes to Robert and tells him he has a short time left to live. It is up to Robert how he spends his last days. An unexpected twist occurs toward the end - you'll have to read it to find out!

Summary: Be Careful What You Wish For!
Comment: Richard Paul Evans in his newest book, A Perfect Day, has written a title which will appeal to his old and new readers alike. Some will also recall Evans's rise to fame with the enormous popularity of his first book, The Christmas Box, which was self published for family and friends. The book was also made into a TV movie starring Richard Thomas and Maureen O'Hara. Evans also recently chronicled the history of The Christmas Box recently in his book called The Christmas Box Miracle which for his previous readers showed a glimpse into a writer's struggle and what appears to be overnight fame. Readers of a Perfect Day, therefore, should not be surprised if they consider that this book may not seem either coincidental or a thinly veiled autobiography when remembering back to Evan's Life.
Robert is a young man when he meets and marries the woman of his dreams. early in their married life Robert works at various jobs while his wife Allyson cares for their daughter and home. In his free time Robert pursues his dream by writing what he hopes one day will be a best-selling novel. Success does come finally but at a bitter price when Robert finds himself on endless book tours and sending less and less time at home. Although very lonely, Robert does respond positively to the many new people he meets. The temptation of a beautiful woman and the lure of a movie deal may threaten both his marriage and the very ideals and values he once had. Then Robert meets a man with almost mystical qualities who not only knows all about him but also predicts his imminent death. Who is this man and how will Robert settle his life if in fact he only has a matter of days left to him.
Although I did find the ending somewhat predictable, I also felt that the author provided a good journey. I also found the characters enjoyable and wondered how people who do achieve great success aren't blinded by the lights of fame and fortune.
While I hoped this book would be as inspirational as the titles from The Christmas Box Trilogy, I did think A Perfect Day was a good read. Despite that a similar theme has filled countless other books notably You Can't Go Home Again and Youngblood Hawke, it did teach me once again valuable lessons about the true meaning of love and success. As I usually do after reading Evans's newest book, I look forward to the next one.
