Sad but uplifting, and very well read
This is an inspiring story of healing, family, and the resilience of the human spirit. It is also a testament to the power of God. Hearing the details of the accident that shattered Lauren Scruggs’ life was brutal—but hearing the story of her recovery, of her will to live and the family and friends that gathered around to support her, is so uplifting. This is actually more than just Lauren’s story. Her various family members—her parents and twin sister—also contribute chapters. Some of their chapters serve to fill in the times Lauren doesn’t remember around the accident. Other chapters serve to create a collective family memoir. This family has suffered a lot of hardship, but they continue to persevere and trust God. Eleni Pappageorge is a great reader. She sounded casual and effortless, and by the end I felt as if Lauren and her family had actually personally told me their story.
