I absolutely loved this book. More After The Break is a strong contender to be my favorite nonfiction read of the year and everyone, no matter their reading preferences, should read it. Jen Maxfield, the author, is a news correspondent for NBC 4 New York. In this book, she "returns" to ten stories that she has reported on during her career, some of which were local to New York and some that were not, to see where the people impacted by these events were now. People are unexpectedly thrown into the spotlight during a tragedy and this title serves as a reminder that they are humans with real lives which keep going after the news crews leave. Maxfield also shines a light on how reporting can help people during a crisis and how this profession serves the public every single day. This is an important book that I truly enjoyed.
