I could not put this book down. It is an awesome story of a woman's struggles that lead her into the arms of God. It takes you from pain, to stregnth, showing that anyone can forgive, be delivered and healed of any circumstance when Jesus is there.

This book was okay. It dragged a little at the beginning but it did pick up in the middle/end. Very happy with the ending. Boy did this girl go through a lot. Goes to show even when you lose God, he always finds a way to get you back.

5.0 out of 5 stars Powerful book, February 24, 2008

This review is from: From the Extreme (Urban Christian) (Paperback)

From the extreme is a powerful book that is full of a woman's dramatic life. What I loved about the book is that no matter what the character racheal experieneced she continued to push and press through it. She knew even from the time she was a small girl that God was going to come in her life and change her situtations around. This woman went through all kinds of drama but never, never gave up beleiving that God could change it around. Thats what I have learned from this book is that whether He does or not He; God can change it around... And just seeing where Racheal came from to where she is now is a blessing and a praise that I love to just shout about!!! You go girl! I will purchase your next book too. This is a must read book!
