I read this book in one session . Thoughtfully written , Kate instantly makes you feel your not alone in some of life's misguided adventures, and feelings of low self esteem a lot of us have at some point of our lives experienced. A book I feel will connect with so many other women; mothers and grandmothers alike. Well done Kate xx
This is an amazing book about family, adoption, sexual abuse and most of all bravery and determination. I could literally read this book over and over again. This book reminds me that it's not where you start in life that matters, it's where you finish!! Thank you Kate for pouring your heart into this book.
