Worth listening to

Revisado: 09-30-22

I found this mostly interesting, informative, and encouraging. I generally take in any new information with a touch of skepticism, until following up with some research. Which I will do. I do plan to listen again as there are points that I want to remember. Also my brain went on vacation a few times and I did not rewind.

Enjoyable, Interesting and encouraging

I especially loved the information regarding the role knitting has played throughout history. Some information that she provided was not new, but she expanded on it which was nice. She challenged my thinking on a few points and supported my thoughts about my knitting desires, goals, and enjoyment. I found myself thinking about a few key people for whom knitting could be beneficial for their health.

A lot of details

I did struggle to finish, but glad I did. I was very surprised in learning about the people he interacted with and the influence he had.

Captivating

Revisado: 08-16-22

I carried my phone with me to the laundry room, bathroom as I got ready for bed and in the morning as I dressed, but primarily I listened as I performed tasks in the kitchen. I appreciate the author clarification of Clara and research of Andrew.
Historical fiction allows me to learn and better remember historical events and people when in story form, which is more concrete for me.

Fabulous audio book

I wish I had listened to this when I got it a few years ago. I have learned so much. I now want the actual book to read through and reference. I can think of so many who could benefit from listening to or reading this book. Also empowering.

Glad I stuck with it

Started slow almost quit. I was not crazy about the detail sex, and fortunately they were short. I like the Character Wanda and relationship with Marie. I hope that the detail about life was what it was like in that time period. I finished minutes ago, and ready to get book three.

I could not stop listening

I expected to like this book and to learn from it. I did not expect to have a hard time turning off they audio. I did not pay attention that this was an Abridged version. I would really like to hear the unabridged version. This woman was extraordinary and everybody could learn from her.

Not what I expected

Revisado: 06-20-19

I think everyone needs to read this book. It was interesting, engaging, and educational. I was not prepared for the in-depth information and the struggles that this man went through, while attending school for pre-med and then medical school.

Unlike anything I have read before

Revisado: 06-15-19

I loved it. I liked the detail, such as when she helped with communion. She described the various people and repeated her part over and over as she broke bread for them. It drove home her experience, and made it more meaningful for me. I do not have the knowledge she does of the various churches, their beliefs, routines, missions and I liked learning about them. I listened to the audio version, which I enjoyed, but I want to go through it again with the kindle book so I can follow along and highlight things. It was helpful to hear reasons why she and others are struggling with church. I could identify with some of them.

I loved it and I will miss the characters. I enjoy the historical aspect in her books.
