Book Review: More After the Break

 




More After the Break: A Reporter Returns to Ten Unforgettable News Stories 

by  Jen Maxfield  

Publisher ‏ : ‎ Greenleaf Book Group Press 

Publication date ‏ : ‎ July 12, 2022





Greenleaf  Book Group Press sent me an Advanced readers More After the Break for Review which is as follows…





Jen Maxfield highlights ten career defining stories in More After the Break, the stories she highlights are often heartbreaking, some inspirational and others simply make you angry, but this book highlights Jen Maxfield’s compassion as well as the stories she covers.






In this book she introduces some Inspirational people often at the most difficult time of their lives.  The ten year old girl who survived the same bus crash that killed her best friend, the man that lost both of his legs, in a ferry crash but not his hope, or his sense of humor, and the nurse who came from another country, who saved his life, the woman who was an endurance athlete and had Lung Cancer, her will to live, evident .  A young woman who gave her life for an animal, a Wall Street executive on an ill-fated bike ride, a preschooler whose health hinged on an immigration battle, a family who lost everything in a hurricane, a mother who fought back against domestic violence, and a man who stood up for his rights while seated in his wheelchair.







Being able to return to these people years, even decades later news gives Maxfield an opportunity to ask the burning questions she had always pondered: What happened after the live truck pulled away? What is the rest of the story?




I give More After the Break five out of five Stars!



Happy Reading!
