A Delicious Read

This well-crafted memoir is a delight to read because it is clearly written by an artist who loves words and knows how to use them effectively. The tale of self-discovering using the metaphor of rooms is so unique that it is a story that will linger with you long after you have closed the pages of this slim book. Buy this book and give it to all your friends. They will love you for it!

A wonderful book by an obviously elegant writer.

This is a wonderful book by an obviously elegant writer with a keen sense of passion and intellect. This is a truly fascinating story beautifully written for everyone interested in the myriad paths of self discovery gratifyingly resulting in triumphant personal liberation.

An intriguing and memorable book.

Fox's idea--of tracing her own changing vision of her life through the houses she's lived in and made--is a terrific (and unusual) one, and her writing does it justice. Beautifully written and moving. Highly recommended!
