If I had to sum up this book in two words they would be: Inspirational Memoir. This is such an amazing true story. After a horrific car accident Kelly found herself a quadriplegic. This was such a heartbreaking story, but at the same time it was a story that was full of inspiration. I honestly don’t know if I could have been strong enough to handle things the way she did. When I started reading this book I was so drawn into it that I couldn’t put it down I found myself going to bed at 3 or 4 in the morning . 🙂 Even if you don’t normally read these types of books, I’m sure you’ll like it. This is a definite must read!Â

Time for celebrations
Michelle Weidenbenner
Michelle is a fulltime employee of God’s kingdom, writing and encouraging writers every day. She’s often a sucker for emotional stories, her sensitive side fueling the passion for her character’s plights, often giving her the ability to show readers the “other” side of the story.She grew up in the burbs of Detroit with five brothers. No sisters. Each time her mom brought the boy bundle home from the hospital Michelle cried, certain her mom liked boys better than girls. But when her brothers pitched in with the cooking, cleaning, and babysitting—without drama, Michelle discovered having brothers wasn’t so bad. They even taught her how to take direct criticism without flinching, which comes in handy with book reviews.
Michelle is living her dream—writing every day and thanking God for the stories He puts in her path. When Michelle isn’t writing she’s winning ugly on the tennis court. She’s known as “Queen of the Rim Shots.” No joke. It’s ugly.

Hi Silvie –Thanks for reading Kelly’s book. She’s truly an inspiration. Since you read the book you’ll understand this–She and Shawn got the kids a few weeks ago. Isn’t that spectacular? Their lives are a bit crazier, but in great way. I’m sure you can relate with having three boys! Thanks for all you do for authors.
That’s wonderful news!!! I’m so happy for them.
I didn’t read this one but now wishing I did.
What a story to follow, I can definitely see why you say inspirational memoir.
