The book is about her life experience and how she got through it and the lessons she had to learn. ( )

Just when you think you have it bad, you read that someone has or had it worse! This was a very depressing book although I am sure the story is true. It's just so sad to read the plight of some women. I am happy though she has persevered.

Oh, how I wanted to love this book!!!! Because ever since Starting Over, I have loved Iyanla Vanzant. With in the pages there are some pearls of wisdom. But as a memior, I felt as if I had been dragged through depression and disfuntion. I try really hard to not stay in my story. We all have stories and the longer we stay in them the worse life seems...It happened there is nothing we can do....I love the saying ' Let Go or Be Dragged....Let go you lovely loving wonderful lady...If you were here I would hug you.....
