emotional hopeful inspiring reflective sad tense medium-paced

5.0

Stephanie Land is a strong and courageous woman who set off to create a better life for her daughter. Reading about her journey was beautiful and inspiring as she never let the downfalls of life consume her and instead rose above them. It also made me angry at how hard it is for people who need help to get help, along with how judgemental the world is. We should be doing more and being supportive. Overall this book was a true masterpiece and I strive to have the ambition Stephanie has.
