Women can be heroes. When twenty-year-old nursing student Frances “Frankie” McGrath hears these words, it is a revelation. Raised in the sun-drenched, idyllic world of Southern California and sheltered by her conservative parents, she has always prided herself on doing the right thing. But in 1965, the world is changing, and she suddenly dares to imagine a different future for herself. When her brother ships out to serve in Vietnam, she joins the Army Nurse Corps and follows his path.

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.

Resilience & Perseverance
Revisado: 06-27-22
I was caught, transported into this book immediately by Ms. Davis’s voice. She sure can weave of tapestry of colorful adjectives and I laughed. So much of the rawness, tenderness, moments of laughter, anger, tears, fears - her life’s journey would have been lost if I were just to have read written words on the pages and I felt it all.
Thank you, Ms. Davis for your strength, honesty and love. I have never read an autobiography that has touched me as much as yours - Your mother’s sheer will and strength and the ability to find forgiveness, have surely been your most precious gifts from her.
I hope whoever reads this, passes my review onto you.

At the end of the Second World War, Cyril Conroy combines luck and a single canny investment to begin an enormous real estate empire, propelling his family from poverty to enormous wealth. His first order of business is to buy the Dutch House, a lavish estate in the suburbs outside of Philadelphia. Meant as a surprise for his wife, the house sets in motion the undoing of everyone he loves. The story is told by Cyril’s son Danny, as he and his older sister, the brilliantly acerbic and self-assured Maeve, are exiled from the house where they grew up by their stepmother.

Beautiful story and wonderfully read by Tom Hanks. Truly enjoyed the strengthening bond between Danny and Mauve over the years and the ending was as it should have been.

Grateful American
Revisado: 08-11-21
Powerful! Thank you Mr. Sinise for making a profound impact and giving of your time, talents and financial resources to honor our military men and women, not from afar but from closeup and personal. I too, am a grateful American and so very proud of our uniformed men and women.

Imagine finding a glimmer of good news in a diagnosis of Alzheimer's. And imagine how that would change the outlook of the five million Americans who suffer from Alzheimer's disease and other dementias, not to mention their families, loved ones, and caretakers. A neurologist who's been specializing in dementia and memory loss for more than 20 years, Dr. Gayatri Devi rewrites the story of Alzheimer's by defining it as a spectrum disorder - like autism, Alzheimer's is a disease that affects different people differently.

Revisado: 05-19-21
Dr. Devi,
Being a women's health nurse practitioner, caring for a mother, age 78, who has been dx'd with Dementia, I wish you would have touched more on the care of loved ones who are in nursing homes. Many may not have a choice for home care of loved ones, so addressing, giving pearls of wisdom on how to best coordinate care & well-being in those settings would have been welcomed.
Overall, the book was filled with helpful information, encouragement and care. I can tell you love your profession and those you care for.
