Since the sketical part of me never really stands down, I loved that the author used a back-up channeler for every example. One channeler for initial information, and a second, independent one to give her own insights. Although I certainly can't claim that every reader will have this experience, I did find peace through understanding about a life-long hurt. There was no answer to the question I ...             Same Kind of Different As Me: A Modern-Day Slave, an International Art Dealer, and the Unlikely Woman Who ...175 reviews Ron Hall, Denver Moore Thomas Nelson, 2008 Ultimately Hopeful, Always Surprising I think I've been had.

I read it in one sitting; I simply could not put it down. The Hannah family's journey through foster parenting and adoption mirrored my own. My family started fostering children around the same time that the Hannah's did and we have experienced many of the same break downs in the child welfare system that they have.

Over the years of studying A ...             The Tricky Part: A boy's story of sexual trespass, a man's journey to forgiveness25 reviews Martin Moran Anchor, 2006 "Under [it] my genius is rebuked"---Macbeth - Act 3, Scene 1 The above quote from Shakespeare expresses a kind of numinous awe; a feeling of inadequacy at having to express the character of this book. I was moved to order it by the unstinting praise given by previous reviewers here. Mr. Moran has managed to transcend the terrible pain he endured through the medium of his art; to me it seems miraculous. The confusion and suffering that took Mr. Moran ...             Story of a Girl26 reviews Sara Zarr Little, Brown Young Readers, 2007 Wow, this is GOOD!
