Ten Stars if I could put them on here!

Willie Jolley blows my mind! What charisma and insight he shares in this and his other book! I found myself smiling, crying, feeling encouraged. Reading his writing is like having a long, friendly supportive letter, sprinkled with some excellent advice. I'm a HUGE Willie Jolley fan now, and I own both his books. They're terrific - and so clear and inspiring they will help anyone who reads them.

Beatitudes are just platitudes, depending on the attitudes

This is the first book I've read by Willie Jolley and it will be the last. If "A Setback is a Setup for a Comeback" didn't repeat passages and themes from his previous book, it would be 40% smaller. If you take away the stories from other motivational & self-help authors that Jolley repeats in this book, take away another 30%. And if you take away every time he mentions the title in the book (repeated almost as a mantra), take away another 5%.

Cliches abound. Like my title for this review tries to convey, you just start shaking your head after reading a certain amountt and wonder if Jolley can write a page without a cliche or "snappy" saying.

To be fair, I did take some good things away from the book. And if he happens to highlight an approach to a life turnaround for you, then it's worth every penny.

So it gets 3 stars. Some good advice for me, but almost to the point of putting the book down for the reasons above.
