I first heard Brenda Warner speak at Women of Faith, and was very anxious to read her book. I must say, she is extremely open and honest, even when what is she is writing is not at all flattering. Part of me wanted to hate how manipulative, possessive, and self-absorbed she was, but then I realize I would be hating myself because every word she wrote described me... only I could never admit that to millions of people. Her honestly is what kept me reading page after page. It’s always amazing to see how someone who came from so little can become so much, and give so much back to others.
While reading this book may not make you love Brenda, you will be able to relate to her. She makes a comment when referring to her 2 miscarriages, “And although I was thankful for my five healthy children, that didn’t lessen the loss I felt over the one I didn’t have. I’d rather have my baby in my arms…” Having lost a child myself, it made me realize I wasn’t alone in my pain since I had that same thought multiple times. That feeling of knowing there is someone out there that can relate to the things you have gone through makes this book worth the read.
Disclosure of Material Connection: I received this book free from the publisher through the BookSneeze®.com
