I had read her blog posts and watched some of her videos. I was excited when I heard that she was writing a book, and I must say that her book lived up to the excitement.
In the book she tells her story about meeting LDS missionaries, how that experience went for her, and her baptism into The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. You learn about how hard it was to lose family members as she joined the Church. I truly can't imagine going through an experience like hers as it would have been so incredibly difficult. You read about how it was her faith in the Church that helped her get through this time.
Even though I was super busy with school work I found it easy to make time to read this book. It reads really well and you feel the same emotions that Al felt as you read her stories. You can tell that she thought about what she was including her book.
Al Carraway's book strengthened my testimony in the Lord and in his church. It reminded me of what is truly important, and what centering our life on God and the gospel can do for us.
If you are looking for a good book to read, then pick this book up. You won't regret it!
