This book is truly Unforgettable, Mar 14 2008
By Shirley Bohannon - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Unforgettable: A Love and Spiritual Growth Story (Paperback)
Michael is a friend on my space. After reading parts of his next book, I had to read Unforgettable. It took me through the gammut of emotions. There were times that I was so angry with "Mike" that I had to stop reading for a while, then the love story with Kathryn had me cheering them both on. I felt the love and heartbreak that Michael was experiencing.
This book has helped me to know the places in my own life that need healing, and I highly recommend it to everyone.

Unforgettable, April 16 2008

This is a beautiful book about life and growth. The author teaches much through a truly open and honest look at his self and his life and at love. 2 of my favorite quotes from the book: "To be responsible is the ability to respond in love" and "Your true point of power is in your ability to change you, not another. Yet when you gain this power of self-transformation all things around you will also change". It is a great read with many great lessons.

Unforgettable? It truly is!!, Oct 23 2007

Every once in a while, something comes along that challenges our perceptions and helps us to see more clearly what is possible. "The Power of Now," "The Celestine Prophecy," and even "Tuesdays With Morrie" are books that have demonstrated to us a different way to view the world and to live our lives. They have taught that with an open heart and an open mind, humanity can accomplish anything. If you have been waiting for another, wait no longer. "Unforgettable," by Michael Skowronski, is just that kind of book.
Taking you on a journey from page one, Skowronski invites you along as he meets and falls in love with Kathryn, a fellow dance student at a spiritual growth center. Their connection is both intense and instantaneous. You will follow them as they navigate the rough patches that arose during the coarse of their relationship, and you will take in the time tested wisdom of the ancient spiritual masters whom they study under along the way. And you will be right by their side as together they fight straight to the end Kathryn's unexpected and emotional battle with cancer.
You will not always feel good about what you're reading. There were times thoughout the book where I found myself disliking Michael. But what endears the reader to Michael and to his story is the redemptive quality it shares with us. Drug abuse, violence, selfishness and even arrogance. It's all here, out in the open; the emotions laid raw for everyone to see. But where most would simply resign themselves to their present state, accepting it as "the way they are," Michael looks within and discovers the key that helped guide the way toward his enlightenment.
I feel that, if given the chance, this book can help you change your life. The wisdom that Skowronski finds is here for you, too. Within every chapter and every story told along the way lies a message, a teaching; True Wisdom that will most certainly better your life should you choose to accept it.
Will you?
