Customer Reviews of Handyman
Very Entertaining!! Maggie Ivy is a struggling twenty-six year old single mom trying to keep it all together. Her boss is a jerk, her job is part-time and barely pays enough and her mother wants her to move back home and marry Bobby Simple. Determined to stay in the San Francisco area, she accepts help when her friend, Gina, signs her up for Dr. Jason Golding's "21-Day Overhaul".
Jake Cooper is surprised when a pretty woman enters Dr. Golding's office crying. Dr. Golding is away at a seminar and Jake, a contractor, is measuring the office for a remodeling bid. Unable to help himself he ushers Maggie to a seat and pulls up a chair for himself and sits down to listen to Maggie's problems. You can see the mistaken identity crises developing and after one hour Maggie feels so much better because "Dr. Golding" is warm, sensitive and a good listener. Jake doesn't know how to tell Maggie the truth so she leaves the office with an appointment to see him a few days later.
After reading so many mixed reviews for this book, I decided to check it out for myself. I borrowed the audiobook version from the library. It was a real treat to have someone read for me. I am usually hesitant with abridged versions of audiobooks but this 6 hour/4 cassette version seems to have included the entire story. You don't feel as though you missed something by not reading the book.
I thoroughly enjoyed Handyman. Jake was not a superhero but an old fashioned quiet guy who was determined to set the world right for Maggie Ivy and her son Tim. Maggie may be shy and naive but she needs a little help. Don't we all at times. Jake and Maggie are both warm and caring individuals and Jake's love for Maggie and Tim will tug at your heartstrings. I would recommend the audiobook. Sit back, relax and enjoy this heartwarming and delightful story.
Just Plain Enjoyable
I enjoyed this book from start to predictable finish. The characters are likable and you keep rooting for Maggie Ivey right from the start. A good, old-fashioned story. As an author myself, of NEW PSALMS FOR NEW MOMS: A KEEPSAKE JOURNAL, I especially enjoyed the sections about Maggie's small son, and all the challenges and joys of raising a child today. You'll like this book!
Fun Summer Read
A very cute summer read that will give you a chuckle when it starts to unfold.
