Once I picked up your book, I couldn’t put it down. I have written essays about resilience which earned me high marks in my degree but now believe that I was not joining the dots so to speak and relating it to everyday life. Your book was both enlightening and inspiring. Definitely as individuals, we are shaped by the differing experiences that life throws at us and we all deal with life differently depending on so many different factors but we will always need the connection and support from family and friends. Despite writing about so many challenging and sad events which have occurred in your life, you manage to see humour in the most unlikely of places. I really enjoyed reading your books and look forward to reading your next one.”
