Book Reviews of Saving Graces: Finding Solace and Strength from Friends and Strangers
Book Review: powerful
Summary: 5 Stars
I was amazed at the depth of feeling shown by Elizabeth after such trajic events. She gave herself time to grieve - but continued to live at the same time. Very powerful.Book Review: So Sad and So Uplifting, Get the Tissue!
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this woman, I've met her and had no idea what suffering she endured because she is strong and intelligent. I cried throughout the book.Book Review: But I don't like her
Summary: 4 Stars
Elizabeth writes an excellent book, however after reading it I really don't think I like her. I really didn't like the message she gave to her son's friends about being "good friends" and not owning up to their mistakes. She basically said they should lie to protect their friends. Not the message I want in the White House.Book Review: Inspiring...
Summary: 5 Stars
In writing "Saving Graces: Finding Solace and Strength from Friends and Strangers," Elizabeth Edwards gives the reader what she has found, strength and solace from a stranger. Elizabeth Edwards may have started out as a stranger to me, but withing a few chapters of the book she seemed like a friend. There is laughter, but there are also tears. The chapters dealing with the loss of her son Wade were heart wrenching. Yet, I think they would also be a comfort to those who have exerienced such a loss. She talks about so many of the feelings that most friends and families overlook or don't notice in the grieving process. This book is a must read for anyone who has lost a child.
Highly recommended...
Book Review: SAVING GRACES
Summary: 5 Stars
I have only recently received this book having sourced it from Amazon.com after seeing it reviewed on the Oprah show. I am currently enjoying reading it very much. The death of one's child is a particularly sensitive subject ( we have lost two sons - one a new baby in 1986 the other a 21 year old from cancer in 2006) and it provides great comfort to read how others have coped in such tragic situations.
I would also like to commend you on your excellent service - so much more efficient than a large and well known distributor in Australia that couldn't even send the parcel to the correct address!!!! I look forward to further purchases. My son also recommends your internet service as he has bought quite a lot of stock from Amazon.com
