Born in poverty-stricken Albania, twin sisters Argita and Detina Zalli always dreamed of becoming doctors. Their parents scrimped and sacrificed, committed to giving them a better life. But then the unthinkable happened. In 1997, the government collapsed, plunging the country into anarchy and civil war. The twins' dream unraveled along with their homeland. Their parents had to find a way to leave and save their daughters' futures—not to mention their very lives.

Imagine waking up one day to discover that you have forgotten everything about your life. Your only link with the past, your only hope for the future, is your identical twin. Now imagine, years later, discovering that your twin had not told you the whole truth about your childhood, your family, and the forces that had shaped you. Why the secrets? Why the silences? You have no choice but to begin again. This has been Alex's reality: a world where memories are just the stories people tell you, where fact and fiction are impossible to distinguish.

Story
"I'm going down now", I said to a young woman a few seconds before the darkness-my first cardiac arrest. As I returned to work as a behavioral coach, it became maddening to hear about all-consuming, everyday problems and misguided priorities while I fought to merely remain conscious. The Half-Known Life challenges conventional thinking of success, identity, and personal change. Most often, truly profound change happens following events that shake someone to their core-a car accident, death of a family member, or cardiac arrest that pulls them into a moment of clarity.

Lynn was the carefree daughter of a Miami undercover narcotics agent—until her dad snuck out of their house in the dark of night without so much as a glance back. She never understood what happened to him until she was in high school, and he was in prison for drug smuggling. By then, Lynn had developed a massive drug and alcohol habit of her own. It was the perfect setup for her to latch onto the only connection to her dad that remained once he was paroled from prison—cocaine.

Publisher's summary
How can you keep your faith in people after seeing the flaws of the American justice system? Juror #11 exposes the flaws and weaknesses in the American justice system from the perspective of a murder trial juror who endured months of trauma, the threat of jail, and thousands of dollars in fines and legal fees because of them.
The author, an adoptive mother of children from trauma and an advocate for other child and adult victims of society, was a victim herself, but because of her strong faith and many years of experience fighting the legal system for others, emerged as a victor. You will be amazed at the number of traumatic events that occurred during five hellish months of her life. And you will be inspired by her courage, selflessness, and steadfastness through it all. In this book, you will learn:
- Our American justice system is flawed
- You can rise out of great tribulations in your life
- Having faith doesn't "fix" your problems
- Loving people is one of the most important things we can do in this life
Her story is one of indestructible hope rising out of the ashes of tragedy.
If you like courtroom drama and stories of people overcoming trials and tribulations, you will love Juror #11.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

In a rarified world of scientific research, a revolution has been brewing. Its activists are not anarchists, but rather Nobel Laureates in physics and economics and pony-tailed graduates, mathematicians, and computer scientists from all over the world. They have formed an iconoclastic think-tank and their radical idea is to create a new science: complexity. They want to know how a primordial soup of simple molecules managed to turn itself into the first living cell--and what the origin of life some four billion years ago can tell us about the process of technological innovation today.

Story
On the face of it, a simple book of 26 poem fables sharing one man’s wisdom. But The Prophet is so much more than that. It has inspired people from John F Kennedy to The Beatles and became the '60s Bible of counterculture – all because of the timeless truths it shared. Each poem takes a different theme – pleasure, beauty, freedom, joy and sorrow – as the fictional Al Mustapha shares his thoughts and experiences as he prepares to travel back to his island home.

What a story!
I had the pleasure of having Katrina on my podcast, Unloaded & Uncovered w/Magda Desir and she mentioned this book. I said I had to read it and man, was it good! I’m definitely going to recommend this to people I know. It flowed oh so effortlessly and it was a great read. I have to get a physical copy signed by Katrina ASAP!

Wow! I had to keep listening!
What a riveting memoir. I'm in awe of all the author has gone through in her personal life and in regard to the trial she sat on --and the commensurate misery that followed. God bless her for all she has done for others. There is a gift in every situation, and one may not find out what it is until later.-:)
Read this, listen to it, and share it. Overcoming all and rising like the Phoenix!

Real Life, Emotional, Justice System Issues
Being asked to serve on a jury can be time-consuming, draining, and confusing. Being selected to serve on a jury to pass judgment on another requires trust in the system. One woman, known to be an advocate for her son and others with the legal system finds herself caught in the middle of a mistrial because of her honesty and faith. Facing jail herself for creating the mistrial she has months to await her trial and possible conviction.
The author and narrator, Katrina Robertson voices her experience with the legal system in two different situations. The first is the advocate for her adopted children and others with the legal system helping them find the needed support. The second serves as a juror for a woman accused of murder. What Katrina discovers and now exposes is how severely the American justice system is defective and that faith will not fix the problems, but it helps to keep one centered and focused on what needs to be done.
Katrina’s performance as a narrator is good and indicates that this is a heartfelt experience she needed to share. It is clear from beginning to end that her courage, compassion, and determination drive her to help those in need.
This is an interesting audiobook that is moving and informative. Further, it is confirmation to many that there are severe needs within the justice system that must be addressed.
There were no issues with the quality or production of this audiobook.

Story
Like You and Me, but in 3D
Katrina Robertson is highly unique on every level: personally a pastor's wife and mother of 5 children, professionally a well-respected financial consultant, spiritually a woman of deep and abiding faith, and patriotically a strong citizen, who loves and believes in the this country and its principles.
She is like you and me, but in 3D. She goes above and beyond in every area and does so by walking every day with God. She faced challenges by the legal system in 2022 that were more than anyone could imagine. As juror number 11, she served on a jury in a murder trial. Through a complicated series of events, she then faced her own trial in a Contempt of Court case. This is her story in her words, read by herself.
I urge everyone in America to read or listen to this book and imagine walking in her shoes. I was mesmerized by her story, her emotions, her situation and her raw courage to face each day in faith and obedience to God with love in her heart for others. She shares the reality of faith in God applied to life, in a way that shows the reader how to do this by following her example. Kristina Robertson is a hero on many levels and she is my hero.

God is our only righteous Judge
What a harrowing experience despite the author’s attempt to do good and provide aid to so many. We know our judicial system is broken but Juror #11 sheds new light on this fact. Katrina Robertson kept me on the edge of my seat to learn of her fate alongside the verdict for the defendant. It is clear that her faith in God and the love and support from friends and family allowed her to hold her head high and rise above the constant chatter and noise. Whether you choose to read Juror #11 or listen to it on Audible, you will ride the roller coaster of emotions felt during any of life’s trials.

A mesmerizing story
A mesmerizing story that will leave you on the edge of your seat. It’s clear the author has gone through a lot and she brings up important issues facing the justice system that need to be fixed. Her faith and determination must be commended. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Interesting but…
Interesting story, but the author is not willing to take responsibility for her mistakes. I’m sure she’s a nice lady. She tries to do the right thing and has been through a lot.
I am an audiobook girl through and through but I would have enjoyed this more as a book. The production value is terrible. It’s like it was recorded on an iPhone and features many mispronounced words.
