Is it better to live an orderly life, or, is it better to live according to the dictates of one's own choices, wishes, hopes, desires? The answer of course, has to do whether or not you are prepared to accept the consequences of your choice. The one is predictable, dull, boring, yet very safe, secure and stable. The other is wild, exciting, and so very unpredictable. No easy answers here, only choices and consequences. With a clever title like "Carpe DiEmily", author Riley J. ford gives us an early indication of where this story is headed.Emily, the protagonist, surprisingly is not the person we expected from considering the book's title. She lives her life according to a very responsible, ordered set of values. She is deliberate, she looks ahead, wise attributes in any time and age. And then we get the twist, for Emily discovers her wild side, and nothing will ever be the same again!What a hilarious book! Emily gets herself into all sorts of dilemmas, troubles and problems.  Will she come out of this safe and sound, unscathed, or will there be consequences? In this fast paced book you will be rapidly turning the pages to find out what Emily's ultimate fate will be. If you like books that deliver that "You made me laugh out loud" effect again and again, this book is for you. This one is highly recommended.Reviewed by Thomas Jerome BakerAuthor ofHow to Coach a Debate Team (Volume 1)
