This was an amazing book. Several chapters had me in tears, several gave me hope in the human condition. I hesitated to read this book for many years as I had some people who supposedly were "in the know" say this book and the author were anti-LDS and anti-marriage and the book would leave me feeling negative. We did not read the same book, nor do we know the same author. When I met Carol Lynn, I felt a huge outpouring of unconditional love, and that's what I feel from this book. Everyone needs to read this book! Everyone needs to apply the love shown! What a different world it would be for so many. ( )
