J'ai lu et j'ai trouvé très intéressant!!!!!!!!!! Que veut dire
intéressant? Une fois la lecture débutée, j'ai eu de la difficulté à m'arrêter
de lire. Un bon livre, selon moi, permet au lecteur de se questionner lui-même;
c'est-à-dire, de s'identifier et de comparer sa façon de voir les choses à
celle de l'auteur. D'interagir avec le contenu! Tout livre sert à
instruire, et celui-ci va au-delà, pour inspirer! Tout livre fait penser,
pousse le lecteur à songer à ses propres idèes; celui-ci pousse à contempler la
vie. Finalement un bon livre ne laisse pas le lecteur indifférent, et celui-ci,
certes, ne m'a pas laissé dans l'indifférence. Est-ce à cause que je
connaissais ton background? Est-ce parce que je connaissais tes
parents? Je ne sais pas. J'ai beaucoup aimé les citations qui servent
d'intro aux diverses parties du livre. Une leçon à apprendre, un message à
contempler tout en lisant et une mise en contexte pour ce que vivaient,
tantôt l'auteur, tantôt son personnage principal. Deux histoires
vraies qui se côtoient et qui se complètent, à mon avis!***Robert F, Nouvelle-Écosse
I received your book today. I started
reading it tonight, I just love it. I'm just at the second chapter but can't
wait to keep reading it on the weekend.***Colette S, Nova Scotia
I read your book on the flight to Mexico I
really loved it.. Great JOB! ***Sharon B, Nova Scotia
Just a note to let you know I received my
book yesterday....I have already started reading it and so far I love it......I
can relate to this woman's abdoman pain......I had more than I can
count......thanks for writing your note.......Good luck on writing more
books.*** Carmelle B, New Brunswick
Une collègue de travail, une amie , une
écrivaine, une femme très puissante qui nous apporte de belles réflexions sur
la vie. Félicitations et merci pour ce beau cadeau!*** Louise H, Nouvelle-Écosse
Great novel! Your own personal story
inspired me and made me reflect on my own past. Well done!***Francine L, Nova

I just finished the book and it was
wonderful! Congratulations you did a fantastic job! ***
Jessica F, Nova Scotia
J'viens juste de finir ton livre! J'pouvais pas me coucher avant
de l'avoir fini! Wow Shelley! J'trouve pas les mots tout de suite pour bien
décrire ce que le livre m'inspire, je suis émue (qui veut aussi dire - jpeux
pas arreter de pleurer!) mais j'admire ton courage et ta détermination. Je veux
le relire de nouveau pour faire sur que j'ai vraiment toute compris les
messages... parce que ceux que j'ai saisi vont me servir à partir de tout
de suite... Mille fois
bravo! et merci!*** Andrée M, Nouvelle-Écosse
I stayed up last night till 2o'clock
reading your book. When I finished it the only thing that I could do was to go
into a meditation state and feel the energy that reading your book was giving
me. You did a wonderful job. I love knowing more about you and the challenge
you faced in life.I love to feel the determination and courage you exhibited.
You wrote with total honesty and it was very much appreciated from the reader's
point. *** Sylive R., Nova Scotia
Shelley....the book was fantastic..I sat
in my Chair with a cup of tea and read the whole thing in a couple of
hours...Congrats once again, wonderful Job...*** Beryl C-B , Nova Scotia
Just wanted to drop you an email to let
you know that Nadine and I both read read your book and loved it! I can't wait
to read your next one; not that I am putting pressure on you or
anything...hehe!! I am an avid reader so I try to take in as many books as
possible. Plus, with being offshore for most of the time, I read quite a lot of
books.I will be recommending your book to many of the people out there who are
also avid readers. *** Ricky & Nadine S. , Nova Scotia
I just finished the book.Excellent work.
It kept me interested from front to back.You can feel the emotion coming off
the pagesCongrats an job well done. ***Darrell R., Nova Scotia
So cool to actually hear the video. I got
the book in the mail the other night and read it right away. I was blown away
when I read this part, but hearing it is amazing...omg....*** Yvonne B. , Nova
Scotia
I intended to read the first few pages of
your book this evening (before drifting off to sleep) but ended up blasting
from cover to cover....Simply, I love it. Both you and Julian are
'angels' we accidentally bumped in to a couple years ago because of a few nasty
bees! Raw, honest, and inspirational - congrats!" ***Adam H.,
Halifax
I just finished reading your book
today! All I can say is, "Wow". Your story and that of Annie's is
truly an inspiration. You've overcome many challenges in your life and you're
an inspiration to all. I started it and couldn't put it down. When is the next
one being printed?*** Cathy S., Cape-Breton
Read your book Shelley and it was very
inspiring. Gives me a new outlook on life. Brought back of memories of your Dad
helping me when I first had my colostomy. Keep writing, you have the gift. ***
Janice J, Cape-Breton
As strange as this may seem, minutes after you accepted my friend request,
Sonia called to tell me that she had just read your book and that I should read
it. She says that "it's a great little book and that it has an inspiring
story." It brought back many memories of the past and of our young, red,
brown and blond llittle neighbors! Congratulations on publishing your book! ***
Penny M, Halifax
I just wanted to let you know I read your
book when I
was on vacation. For the past two months I've been trying in vain
to find
meaning for my sister's illness and death; I think your book has
nudged
me towards the path. I started and finished reading your book in three
hours, that is a record for me. I just couldn't put it down. All I can
say is <wow>. It is such an inspirational story. It makes me
realize just how lucky I am. You have a great talent, don't stop now.
Can't wait to read the next one. *** Tracy M, Halifax
I have been meaning to write you for a while now and of course, have been putting it off. I LOVED your book!!!!! I read it in one sitting (quite impossible with two little rugrats running around everywhere) I actually got up really early one morning so that I could enjoy your book alone. I had only 2 chapters left when my munchkins woke up. I read the last 2 chapters standing at the counter while feeding my girls their breakfast. I really enjoyed your writing, have you found your calling?*** Amy S, New Brunswick
I received your autographed book yesterday and was so excited I immediately curled up on the couch and read it from beginning to end. Even though I have just had breast cancer surgery I feel so blessed that I have had a mostly uncomplicated life.You are probably wondering how that could be with 7 children--I loved every minute, well almost--haha. Poor Annie, she must be a strong person--I'm glad she had her story told.*** Ingrid C., Nova Scotia
Read your book and really enjoyed it! ***Joan D, Nova Scotia
I loved your novel. When is the next one coming out? *** Jennie L., Nova Scotia
I read it in one night!!! And you have to know how slowly I read in order to see how great a compliment that is! The lesson was a very worthwhile read. It was a real page turner! Great job! You should be very proud of your success! *** Lise S., Nova Scotia.
