This book was such a breath of fresh air. The writer really made it seem like an in person conversation. She opened herself up to the reader to get a true sense of what one can expect of a similar journey. Thankfully, by learning of her experiences you can be more prepared for your own journey. She also includes factual information to add to the credibility for reference.
