This is a fast and enjoyable read. Sister Hoole talks about her life experiences with such love and happiness. Even amidst her trials, you can hear the hope as you read. This gives perspective for me as a young person and it reminds the older generation of everything they have to rejoice about. Love, love, love this book!

Read like a Relief Society lesson. Good advice but nothing new.
