Reviews
<p> 4/5 Stars </p><p>James Schilling is what's commonly known
as a "loveable loser": he's a pretty decent guy, but he's not a hit
with the ladies, and his job doesn't exactly cause him to jump out of
bed in excitement every morning. Things soon change for James, though,
when he gets a layoff scare at work one day, leading him to re-evaluate
his life and think long and hard about how to make it better.
Eventually, he decides to reconnect with his absentee father - who long
ago abandoned him and his mother - in an effort to reconnect with his
past and fill the lingering emptiness he feels inside...little does
James know, though, he can hardly prepare himself for what the
surprises of his future hold in store. <br /><br />In Hello, My Name Is
James, author R.M. Hamilton has created the quintessential everyman in
James Schilling. Readers of all ages are sure to identify with James'
personal quest, as well as relate to his various struggles with
identity, fulfillment, and ultimate inner peace. Written in an
easygoing, straightforward style, Hamilton's tale unfolds at just the
right pace, aptly chronicling the personal and professional
metamorphosis that James undergoes. As such, his transformation can
serve as inspiration for readers who may find themselves trapped in
similar circumstances, on a perpetual quest for personal liberation. <br /><br />A
pleasantly enjoyable read, Hello, My Name Is James will surprise the
reader with its powerful, not-so-subtle message regarding the rewards
of taking life by the reins and forging your own destiny. If Hamilton's
narrative inspires more people to do the same, true happiness in life
will no longer remain as elusive as commonly thought. <br /><br />Linda Waterson <br />Apex Reviews </p>
