A woman’s
transformation from fear to faith through thankfulness to God.
This
is not a how to, but more of a blog styled record of the author working through
the issues that haunt her. She
completely exposes herself sharing her thoughts and experiences in all of their
beauty and ugliness as she hunts for reasons to be grateful. The writing is very romantic, flowery, and poetical
– which could be a turn off for some people, but I thought it was rather
beautiful. Each entry is full of raw
emotion and written as a string of consciousness thoughts and not structured
essays. I will have to say this seems to
be written for Ann to clarify her own thoughts and so on occasion I found it
hard to follow, but the empathic bond created by one struggling human to
another made the strength of her emotions and epiphanies hit me almost as hard
as if they were my own. This book is not
for everyone, but for those who are attracted to it expect a soul wrenching
experiences and a challenge to your own inconsistencies between belief and
actions.
