I enjoyed listening to this book — I like the voice actor’s Brooklyn accent but the other voices overlap at times.

It’s a pleasurable listen as you get to learn the inter workings and secrets of famous ladies. I found myself very drawn to Capote and could see his place in this mess of relationships and intrigue.

I’m enjoying this podcast because I’m not buying the Warren Commission and yet I’m not a fan of crazy conspiracy theories. This podcast is logical and tells the story well.

I truly enjoyed listening to this as an audiobook while driving. I felt like Mr. Patterson was in the passenger seat telling me about his intriguing and funny moments in his life.

Awesome performance! A joy and not just fluff — lots of deep inside info with a casual flair.

I enjoyed this book on many levels. Through writing this book, Amber is helping many of us who were swayed by the illustrations of children playing with pandas and lions on the new earth created exclusively for Jehovah’s Witnesses juxtaposed next to illustrations of the rest of us whom the ever loving Jehovah will kill and cast into a fiery lake of destruction because we were not Jehovah’s Witnesses by birth or by choice.

I started studying and asking questions in 1987 at the death of my boyfriend with whom I was deeply in love. When he died, I only wanted to rejoin him. A Jehovah’s Witness came to my “aide” and told me that my beloved dead lover was only sleeping. That he would rise and be given a chance to live on the new earth….but as for me…..well it wouldn’t be so easy. I would have to convert and become a Jehovah’s Witness to survive Armageddon and only then could I reunite with him as God saw fit.

I fell for it for about 2 1/2 years. I left home. I was to rent a disheveled house with a witness friend. My parents were heartbroken because I’d given up college and most all of my previous goals to follow into what they perceived as a cult. I was emotional. Then an elder forbade my witness friend to move into the disheveled home with me because I was not yet baptized and would make the organization look bad.

After that, I gave up and went home. I missed my family and I decided to try to get into college, which I did. I spent the next few years trying to find myself and become someone of whom I could be proud. I have a bachelor’s degrees and two master’s degrees.

Fast forward to the last week of March 2022, I got a letter in the mail from someone wanting to study the Bible with me. I called. The lady was very nice and I gave it a try. First class zoom meeting. But old hurts die hard. That’s when I took to google searching stories of ex-Jehovah’s Witnesses and found this book. I listened with great eagerness because I understood all of what Amber was feeling.

At this point, I canceled the Bible study and exclaimed to my own heart that I just couldn’t go through this again at age 50-ish, married and with an adult son.

Religion wise, I’m still unsure. We became Catholics and even now — I’ve discovered things about that faith that annoys me yet most of it is hidden behind the beauty of the Mass and the appeal of mystery in the cathedrals. My husband and I started going to a quiet Christian church on a hill — plain and simple. And I like that. I believe in the priesthood of the believer. I’m tired of authoritarian lies and deceit from any organization.

Amber’s book is again, intelligently written and a joy to which to listen.

Thank you, Amber and I wish you all of the best in your life with your second child, education, and life. You seem to be a lovely person who has had to face a lot of pain in life. I’m glad you have survived.

I discovered the Law of Attraction in 2008 and have yet to have mastered it in the way that yields results. I bought this book because I’m tired of it not working for me. Kap gives great information about scripting and ways to visualize and to clear out the pathway to success.


It really is the Last Law of Attraction book for me because I will listen again and I will work on the simple exercises each day!

I have been listening and actually finished it a moment ago. I plan to listen again because I want to practice what I've learned instead of relying on bits and pieces I've chosen to recall.

I know that once I internalize it, changes will come.

Thank you and hugs.
