"That was so beautiful to read! You are so brave, wise, and inspiring! Thank you for sharing this xxx"
"Beautifully written book, words from her heart. A raw truth of Elsie struggles in life that has brought her to the one true God. A salvation story! An encouragement for others who have been through the same trials and are struggling to find love, true love."
"A collection of Poems created from real life experiences by the author. Full of emotion and an insight into her life story. Can be confronting, but also comforting in the fact that she did not let these experiences define her as a person. A great read if your feeling lost, very thought provoking."
"I'm up to part 3, and I don't want to put it down but I have to as I really gotta hang washing and chuck another load in, while the weather is good! It's funny (well not actually funny) but as I read I recognize you at those points in your life, what we were doing in them, together or apart! I absolutely love it!"
"This book is so well written and truly touched my heart. I got caught up in the writer's journey growing up from a challenging childhood to finding happiness as an adult. I highly recommend this book! 5 out of 5!!"
"I just finished reading your book...in one sitting. I thought I'd just read a couple of poems before I go to bed. But I can't put it down."
"You are truly a gifted writer."
"My dear, you have such a big heart, and you know I love you. I have always believed in you and your successes, and I can't begin to explain the joy I feel, in seeing you bless others lives. You are gifted, you are kindhearted, You are changing lives. Thank you so much my friend. You are the epitome of Mana Wahine x"
"The poems are raw, deep written with nothing but true emotions, from a young girl who managed to keep going even though all else was falling apart. A true inspiration for those going through it/have been through, you are not alone, at the end it is Gods grace that helps conquer all her past fears and tribulations. A true inspiration for the young, a lesson learned for the old, through God all things are possible."
