hopeful inspiring reflective medium-paced

How do I even begin to describe this book? I mean, it's practically indescribable, the feeling I got while reading this. Has a book ever left you full? That reading it filled some space within in you that you didn't even know you had, or even know you wanted filled? That's probably the best way to describe reading this book for me. I didn't even know this was something I had been looking for in a book but I'll be damned if I'm not better off for finding it.

Attempts at description aside, I also want to note that this is a well-edited book. You can tell that someone took the time to work with the author to make the writing clear and concise without loosing her voice. I honestly have an urge to buy copies of this book and ship it to different organizations with a note that says "See, this is why you need to hire editors."
