I stopped reading on page 81, chapter 7. :(

I really wanted to finish this book but couldn't. The words were too close together, the paper was too white, and there wasn't enough of room between the paragraphs. I was always aware that I was reading words on paper. 📖

Patricia St. John was a really talented author. But I couldn't get through it because of the farmout of the book and my reading difficulties. I think I would have rated it 5 stars if I would have been able to find an audio book.

Something I really like about the book were the photos! I think all books should either have pictures or photos. 🎨🦋🪲🪶🦈🦎

I love art.💜💜💜 :)

I read so many stories written by Patricia St John as a child - and never once wondered about her own life. Well worth finding out about! A lady who took her faith seriously, had at least three different careers, lived a full life as a single woman, and always passed on what she learned to others. Looking forward to meeting her in heaven. :-)
Thanks so much to the friend who lent this to me. The problem is I want to pass it on to others before returning it.

2.75 ⭐️(Read aloud w 14 yo dtr for worldview class )Great life of service and ministry and we absolutely found her inspiring. I’m sure her story is fascinating but in book form it just seemed to drag. (Own physical)
