| Great book! I enjoyed the creative way Melanie included her family and friends personal accounts of her story. The people who surrounded her through her illness in the hospital and after suffered also. God can and does use our suffering for His glory...more | |

I read your book in two days! I couldn't put it down, and I loved it so much. Thank you for writing your story to share and touch lives. It had a great impact on me and I am hoping to take your testimony and begin making mine better. :)I'm not a good writer at all, but I attempted to write a review for your book so others may be encouraged to read it.
Take care,
Ashley
HI AshleyThanks for letting me know. I would like to let you know that although my story stays the same, my book is currently being re edited for common misspellings, and some structure etc. So please don't judge the book by the editing. The new printed copies will have the changes made. I look forward to your feedback.
Merry Christmas!
Candy
Candy, I am completing my December reading challenge and your book is next on my list. I will be beginning it very soon and look forward to reading it! :)

It sounds like just what God would want me to read right now, as I am at the border of a major turning point in my life. I am inspired by your determination in many ways, but mostly in writing this novel to share it with the world. I look forward to rating and reviewing it.
