I appreciate that it is self narrated by the author - her personality and style show through and so many "extras". I have recommended my friends both read it and listen. This journey resonates with many who grew up through the church during that period. This caused me to pause and reflect and I appreciate that, while hurt in this life change, she does not push blame. Rather she is reflective and intentional in healing and forward movement in her relationship with God and people. Well written, very different from her other books. I so appreciate the tone and style. Highly recommend!

Loved it! Every woman should read this. It is so comforting to know that the storm may lead to a more beautiful and brighter path ahead. Thanks Jen!!

Absolutely wonderful!!! After losing my 3 month old to SIDS, my abusive husband, whom was cheating on me since day one and having another woman pregnant at the same time I was and that hospital I worked at for 19 years shut down. I lost it… I faked it way too much. This audio book was so amazing and although I’ve been on the same road for the past 7 years I can so relate and it’s nice to recollect!! Thank you Jen!!!

I never give memoirs less than 5 stars (because how can I review someone’s heart on paper) but this one, I wish I could give it more. Jen Hatmaker has shown the world, once again, how messy and lovely life can be, and doesn’t shy away from the parts that make her look less than perfect. A true inspiration.

Said many words for women out loud who were infiltrated to the culture at the time. Author as the reader was great and felt like a conversation with a new friend. Go girls!

This is a great book if you are going through a divorce.

It’s unfortunate she’s been hurt by her husband which is super sad. Although, it’s not thee focus of her book. She’s clearly an angry, misled, confused about life, focused on self, hater of the United States, a denier of the truths of the Bible and completely wrong about the majority of the melting pot of humans who are actual true Christ followers. Jesus is real, the Bible is truth, there are right and wrongs and he is the way the truth and the life. Not “me.”

Great story, lots to get out of it even if you're not recovering from a religious upbringing. Took a minute to get used to her narration style, but I think it upped the humor that she read it herself.

you MUST listen to her audio because every bit of her personality is in it! The only terrible thing about the book is that it ended. Well done Jen!!!

A biographical masterpiece. Literally life changing for anyone brave enough to follow in the path Jen has trusted herself to be carried through. I am sure I will listen and read again - it’s really that good.
