I’d like to hug the Author

Revisado: 08-05-24

Home with Covid, I’ve been allowed to listen to this book nonstop. If I’d not been confined, this story would have had me sneaking off to listen every chance I got. Thank you to the Author for her opening the world of not only sailing, but of parents of the 70’s & 80’s who never considered how their actions could affect a child’s world. The Authors description of sailing, brought back memories of my own on a C&C 42’, though only on the Great Lakes USA. There are children worldwide,who are thrust into adulthood prematurely due to poor parenting, absent parents. I wanted to hug the children in this book and provide some of the love, affection, and encouragement they were deprived of.
Ms Heywood, thank you for sharing, and you are wonderful.

Unable to continue

This is a great topic, with a horrific narrator who struggles with pronunciation. Would it have been better with acoustics that don’t sound like he is recording in his bathroom or garage? Yes. Maybe. But the stumbling over words and topics through the second chapter (hoping it would improve) has me giving up.
Don’t waste your credit and more importantly your time.

I finally get it

Not really sure how I stumbled across this book, and I can honestly say the Manson Family wasn’t anything I ever actively followed.
This book had me hooked from the start. As obsessed as Mr. O’Neill became, I felt as though I was also. The years of dedication, research, and sacrifice for this story are commendable.
Thank you Mr. O’Neill for creating a flow, that I did understand and couldn’t get enough of.
You are appreciated.
