A story that is not for our time

Revisado: 09-17-24

Since this was a new release I thought it was a recent writing, but some details revealed that it is decades old. That explains why the woman's role is subservient in the storyline. These are the sort of values I grew up on, which are no longer relevant (thank goodness.)

The story of a little village that became real to me.

Revisado: 06-20-24

I purchased this audiobook to pleasantly pass the time while I was traveling. It quickly drew me in, and now that it is done, the characters live on in my imagination - I can't say goodbye and let them go! The storyline is intriguing and immediately engaging. I became invested and cheered on the protagonist in my heart, even when I had to pause and attend to other things in my life. There are a couple of sections that are emotionally devastating, so be prepared for heartbreak. (I have warned you!) Overall, though, it is triumphant and finds a way, despite adversity. There are many moral lessons woven throughout, so don't buy this book if you don't want to end up a better person. For everybody else, I recommend without reservation!

Taking initiative in getting what I need

Revisado: 01-22-24

A very positive approach in making caregiving work. Caregiving is hard, it is demanding, but that doesn't mean that I have to give all of myself. This podcast encourages caregiver self-care by knowing it is possible, and having a strategy to get some support.
