Review by Editor with Dorrence Publishing
My first Review!
“Upside Over” is the author’s always charming and often humorous perspectives of the myriad components of family life. Beginning with the conception of a newly married couple’s first child, the author effectively escorts the reader through the highly and sometimes less significant events and circumstances most will encounters as they navigate the path of life. From his wife’s transition from hot and witty playmate to overwhelmed and often cranky mother, the husband’s point of view is well depicted. In vivid detail the author portrays the often maddening, but always rewarding, pains both parent and child endure as they grow. The dynamics of the various relationships between family members is presented in a realistic and entertaining fashion. The challenges of today’s society in terms of blended families and divorce is discussed along with the peculiarities the author finds in dealing with men in general. In sum, Wanita Coy succeeds in painting an accurate portrait of the various family components most will experience in some manner in their lives. The author’s highly descriptive and humorous style of writing could further enhance the appeal of this work.

Professional Review are great, but personal review are the best!
Hello Wanita! This was the ideal website for me to visit today! You see it made me laugh...it made me laugh hard! This is what I needed, after seeing my daughter in the hospital yesterday, looking so pale after having her fourth surgery (with complications)--she's only 37yrs old. So, thank you so much, for giving me a much needed break from misery and sorrow, and feeling good in my heart and body, just from being able to laugh for a spell! God always has a ram in the bush! I'm feeling so much better now, I think I'll go over to my own website and enjoy the song on my celebration page! Feel free to come along and join me, and we'll sing the song together, (smile). http://www.milliesliterarycorner.com Thanks again, Wanita! It's websites like yours that the world need a lot more of! |

Following is the review that will be posted at www.lighthouseliteraryreviews.com under November 2006 reviews. Thanks! Courtney Review Coordinator for Lighthouse Literary Reviews FOUR AND A HALF BEACON FOR UPSIDE OVER by Wanita Coy Forget the stories you’ve heard about the joys ofraising children, and read the true accounts of Wanita Coy’s ‘Upside Over’. A delightful, somewhat humorous recollection of the trials of parenthood, every parent can relate to. If not for the few grammatical flaws, I would give this book a 5 star rating! "Been there, done that, and I know where you’re coming from," is what most parents will say while reading this book. A highly recommended reading for parents who may think they’re alone in their trials, or parent’s to be who believe their jobs will be an easy task. Reviewed by: Deanna Wanita Coy author of Upside Over: Both Mix 96.7 and 94.5 Coyote-FM Radio aired a story from the press release we got last week from your publisher. I think it should be a point of community pride when a local author makes it into print, and is therefore newsworthy. You should send another note JUST BEFORE the release date, and - time permitting - we will do another mention. -Ken Sutherland Ruby Radio Corporation

Ms. Coy, author of "Upside Over" has done an excellent job of portraying what real family life is all about.
The ups, the downs, and all the in betweens! I cried a little, I laughed a lot.
Ms. Coy openly shared a lifetime of love, laughter, tears, and outright honesty.
She has experienced her share of hardships and heartaches and did not let them overcome her.
When she found herself in "the barrel", she didn't duck, she faced it head on!
She has recognized everyone's quirks and made treasures of them.
She has made it easy to laugh at just about anything in retrospect.
I found "Upside Over" to be a truthful, humorous, and refreshing view inside of everyday family life.
It is wonderfully written with a gutsy spirit, and warmhearted hilarity.
This is a 5 star to me!
Thank you Ms. Coy. I needed this!
