The authenticity of the author, though I most appreciate hearing this historical American story in the voice of Justice Brown Jackson!

Historia
In my book, you will meet a little girl named Viola who ran from her past until she made a life-changing decision to stop running forever. This is my story, from a crumbling apartment in Central Falls, Rhode Island, to the stage in New York City, and beyond. This is the path I took to finding my purpose but also my voice in a world that didn’t always see me.

Determination and Grit!
Revisado: 12-07-24
Ms. Davis’ story of pushing through every obstacle she faced, her discipline and devotion to her craft, her family and friends was awe-inspiring! Also I admired her methodical, yet compassionate approach to problem-solving, especially with her family. Probably I enjoyed most her fierceness and commitment to “keep the main thing the main thing”.

Historia
Born to survivalists in the mountains of Idaho, Tara Westover was seventeen the first time she set foot in a classroom. Her family was so isolated from mainstream society that there was no one to ensure the children received an education, and no one to intervene when one of Tara’s older brothers became violent. When another brother got himself into college, Tara decided to try a new kind of life. Her quest for knowledge transformed her, taking her over oceans and across continents, to Harvard and to Cambridge University.

Brutally honest and transparent
Revisado: 09-16-18
What a gripping story! It was a courageous act to put this experience into words, even if not precisely accurate in every detail. Indeed, it is a gift to those who will never know such a family as this one, but represents, to some degree, a composite of the America hidden to a great degree from the main stream. It is a gift in that it will allow me to have greater empathy for those who have locked themselves in a world of their own creation with tenuous ties to reality. Thank you, Dr. Westover!

Historia
We expect our judges to be honest and wise. Their integrity and impartiality are the bedrock of the entire judicial system. We trust them to ensure fair trials, to protect the rights of all litigants, to punish those who do wrong, and to oversee the orderly and efficient flow of justice. But what happens when a judge bends the law or takes a bribe? It’s rare, but it happens. Lacy Stoltz is an investigator for the Florida Board on Judicial Conduct. She is a lawyer, not a cop, and it is her job to respond to complaints dealing with judicial misconduct.

Pretty engaging story

Though a bit underwhelming for what I have come to expect from John Graham. Took awhile to get started, but an interesting plot.

Novel slow to get started...
Revisado: 03-18-16
...almost didn't maintain my attention , but spell-binding once it got started. I am glad to have stuck in there as it turned out to be an engaging, thought-provoking, touching story.
