Summary: Chicken Soup for the Prisoners Soul?
Comment: I bought this book for my son Ted who is in jail. I was looking for a book that would inspire him and tell him stories of other people who have overcome great hardships in life. My son said the book moved him deeply and brought tears to his eyes several times.
Ted is a drug addict, suffers from serious depression and broke several laws. He was eventually jailed for his crimes. I believe that he has much potential but he made many unwise decisions and jail is the appropriate place for him to take his punishment.When he leaves jail he will then go to in-patient treatment for his drug problem. He will need all the strength and courage he can find. I want Ted to understand that he has the opportunity to change his life, that other people have overcome greater problems than he faces and I hoped this book would help. I think it did just that.
If you know someone who is not making wise decisions, who feels life is unfair and needs the courage to take control of the their life--then this is the book for them. Buy it and give it to them. Who know, maybe you will help someone change their life.

Summary: The best Chicken Soup book yet
Comment: I like the Chicken Soup books because they are a combination of short articles and stories. I don't have as much time as I'd like to read so I like something I can just read a few pages of at a time. I can't put this one down! I especially like the letter "Hussy Sunsets" by Milly Vanderpool. It is letter of congratulaltions she sent, in 1941, to her younger brother when he married, submitted by her Granddaughter, Laura. I keep thinking of what she said, "The most important thing in a marriage is not a home, children or a remedy against sin, but simply there always being an eye to catch".

Summary: Above most servings, but still far below the first one
Comment: Perhaps the words "for the Unsinkable Soul" had misled me to over expect, I was quite disappointed. The stories are relatively plain and uninteresting. It's a complete stereotype of the first three servings, but with much less glamour and appeal.
In case you are still very satisfied with the third serving, which I believe only people who had completed the first three servings would look for a book like this, go for it. If you had already been tired of the third one after the first two, this book is not for you.
