I Carried Her: A Journey of Letting Go

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

She carried heartache, hope, and everything in between. I carried her.

In this moving follow-up to The Life and Times of Chair No. 27, C.M. Wayers invites readers into the worn seams of a green canvas backpack—a silent companion to a young girl navigating life’s tender moments. From playground scrapes and protest marches to whispered secrets and tear-streaked nights, the backpack observes, remembers, and ultimately bears witness to the quiet weight of growing up.

Told through the watchful eyes of an object too often overlooked, I Carried Her is a lyrical meditation on memory, resilience, and the things we hold—until we’re finally ready to let go.
