She's a journalist,* so she cites her sources and uses the material well. So God Never Blinks isn't the most original material and doesn't contain The Answer to Life's Problems; it is a worthwhile book. The 50 essays between its covers comprise an easy-to-read, get-going (in the right direction) or get-going-again guide that is ideal for folks who've hit one of life's speed bumps or who are wending their way through one of its "little detours."
What I'd like to see next from Brett: more, with the spotlight on her reporting/storytelling skills. Her best columns in The Plain Dealer feature both. Meanwhile, no need to wait for the next book; pick up her first and enjoy... your life a little more.
* And two-time Pulitzer Prize finalist!
