Customer Reviews

"Honesty of the soul"

. Pay attention to detail and in that you might be quite amazed at the depth of Ms. Hall's pain of disclosure. Her gift of outright truthfull admissions is possibly the greatest gift for all who ever lived with anyone, with a skeleton in their closet. This is prevelant in almost all of our lives. This book does not go into a sensationalistic tabloid venue. It does give one a feeling of trueness, honesty and courage. Refreshing in this day and age. Ms. Hall is a woman with great insight, way before her time. I would love a sequel. How is life for her now. What does the "O", on the cover signify? As a Woman and Mother, I have my own ideas.
