Great story! A boy to man that never gives up; driven and continues to push forward no matter what the odds are. Having a support system like he did allowed him to reach new heights in his life. There was some parts that had me tear up- it was good! When you think your times are bad, think of Kyle!

Keep pushing forward>>>

Kyle's story Is one of dedication and determination, totally loved it. The narrator could have used some help. Punctuation seemed to be incorrect like he was reading it 1 word at a time.

The story itself is great, but man, was it painful to listen to the narrator's erratic pauses. I don't think he realizes that hyphens aren't read aloud as commas, because words/phrases like "strength-training" and "last-ditch effort" were read as "strength, training" and "last, ditch effort." Weird. I don't ever want to listen to a book narrated by this dude again.

Narrator needs to go back to school

This is a good book for anyone who faces challenges in life; which we all face from time to time. Kyle overcame so may challenges, facing them head on and never backing down from his goals.

I highly recommend this book in hard copy over audio. It was very hard to listen to this book due to the cadence of Troy Klein. He does not narrate in a easy flowing manner. He has long pauses in the middle of a sentence or thought, making it hard to follow the story. This book is only 5 hours in length and I would typically get through this in a day. However, I struggled to listen to it for more than a few minutes at a time.

Good Book on Overcoming Challenges

The content was good and even inspiring, but it was difficult to listen because of the narrator. At times it was painful!

Great book with a horrible narrator!!

The concent is ace! It's a great read and I'm glad i listened to this book but the narrator makes listening difficult. The narrator uses erratic pauses mid sentence and sometimes he pauses after several individual words in a row before taking off reading at a pace that makes several sentences sound like one giant run on sentence.

narrator has halting and erratic reading style
