Customer Reviews
Loved This Book!
This is a wonderful book full of real, honest, heart-to-heart talk. She freely admits to the mistakes she made which helps readers to trust and relate to her. It's a quick read, quality on every page.
Extremely disappointed
I am a 44 year old woman and expected to read a book that contained some complex sentence structure. I've alway been a fan of Ms. Strawberry but I'm disappointed in the book. I appreciate her opening up private areas of her life but it just feels like she jumped on the book ban wagon without really tapping into the truths of her story. I felt like the reiteration of the letters was ridiculous since most of the letters are common knowledge if you're a listener. I expected more Ms. Shirley. I will patiently await the book that you write from your heart.
