I was very excited to read this book. I love the premise of increasing resilience and forgiveness.

It started off very touching, when Evelyn talks about the abuse she endured as a child. It was difficult to read, and I applaud the author for making it through such an awful childhood.

I liked the author's biographical information, as well as her reflections. She made it through with her faith in God. And that's where she lost me. There were too many bible quotes for my liking, and I just glossed over the rest of the book.

I had hoped that there were more suggestions to improve resilience and forgiveness, other that reading the bible and believing in God.

An excellent book written for women but applicable to men. Your husband will probably steal your copy so buy two.

The real life stories of the author will move you and inspire you to discover and overcome your own past hurts.
