I found John Kralik's book to be a touching and important reminder in a time of quick emails, abbreviated text messages, and facebook posts that a thought-out note says just as much about the sender as the receiver. It also sends a message of sincerity that is lacking in all other forms. This story is a blueprint to understanding that the little things we do for each other are just as important as the big things. I got this book thinking it would be easy to sell on Amazon or swap on PBSwap again...but instead it's getting it's own place on my bookshelf.

When I first started the book, I felt a little disappointed. I put it down, picked up something else, then came back to it a few days later and read it in a day and a half. I really liked it. I think you have to be in the mood to read each and every book you pick up, on that given day.
The author's message is one that most of can relate to, everything starts going wrong and you eventually start looking for something you can do to make things feel better. I haven't written thank you notes in several years and am now inspired to start again. In this day and age of computers, people don't write notes like they used to, (me included!) and I think most people would be glad to see something in their mailbox besides bills! Thanks to the author for sharing his story!

Very inspiring book! An easy and enjoyable read. Kralik is really at the end of his rope, living in a small apartment, his law firm failing, his love life on the rocks.....life sucks. He decides to show appreciation to clients who have paid their bills, friends who have shown him kindness, employees who have worked so hard for him. These thank you notes are hand written, in this age of emails and texts. Gradually his life improves, more clients are paying their bills, his sons repay loans, his attitude toward life is cheerier. It's a very uplifting book. Even inspired me to write a few thank you notes myself.
