I have always loved the writing of Mitch Albom. I have not been very religious or spiritual but in the past year I have been trying to expand and understand this level of beliefs. The writing had me hoping that Heaven existed rather than what it just being a human created reality.

When I saw Palmieri interviewed on the Rachel Maddow Show, I started crying. This book doesn’t take the sting off November 8, 2016, but Palmieri lays out a very touching, emotional, and informative road map to get us back to the mindset where we believed our first female President will become a reality.

"This might have been the first film that made me realize what type of filmmaker I was going to be. The faces and personalities are so vivid. I always wonder if people would care about this simply observed masterpiece if it were produced today, after the advent of reality TV and YouTube."
