5.0 out of 5 stars A woman's courageous soul reaches out for answers., April 13, 1999

By	Nancy Stone (Medford, Oregon) - See all my reviews

Susan Anderson tells her story with all the guts of the person I know she is. There is no holding back. This story will inspire any woman (or man) who is searching for their sense of self...and self worth. The brilliance of this book is that Susan eventually finds out who she is and what her purpose is on this earth. Something that still eludes many of us. Nancy Ediger-Stone

5.0 out of 5 stars Good for all, March 5, 2003

I first discovered this book on accident in a public library downtown. At first i didnt give it much thought but when i read a few of the beginning pages i was hooked. This is an all around good book. Its good all around becuase even if you dont believe in a god im sure you would still like it.
