Excellent narration but a bit preachy

The narrator nailed this performance. It was spot on. The story mixes personal life experience with AA folk wisdom and the Bible. Much of the time I had to “chew the meat and spit out the bones”. I really liked this audible escape selection.

Great read

This book came from a different point of view. I liked it a lot and got an idea of the wisdom that Beatrice Berry has. I do believe that she has a god given talent. I won’t go into details of the book but I hope this review piques your interest to take the time to listen.

An unusual narrarator

A deeply complex and fascinating, rich story full of humor and comforting African-Americanisms. A really enjoyable read. Enjoyable and interesting throughout, although not highly romantic. It's really a drama, not a romance.

Loved it!

This book gives hope and urges a person to never give up despite what they’ve been through. I’m usually not thrilled about the “Knight in Shining Armor” cliche’ but I liked the relation to spirituality & ancestral guidance tied into things and the overall outcome. I really enjoyed this journey!
