## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Riveting!
*by P***Z on October 1, 2024*

I purchased the Kindle copy, and used the Alexa reading feature so we could listen to it on our drive. It was absolutely captivating - we couldn't stop listening! To follow Bethel Veanes through incredible heartbreak, poverty and redemption was deeply moving. The fact that it was all TRUE made it all the more poignant. Although I had heard about the depression from my parents, their experiences, as difficult as they were, paled in comparison to the ordeals described in this amazing true-life account. Like every really good read, it left me wanting more. (This would make a great movie!)

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An amazing true story of struggle and survival..wow.
*by S***N on February 2, 2024*

I couldn’t put this book down when I started reading, it’s an amazing story of life during the Great Depression and the struggle to survive and find bits of happiness while suffering great personal tragedies. Wow covers my response to this book! So great a read for a first book, I’m so glad you shared your great grandmothers story for the world to read, Valerie Veanes Upton! Thank you.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Story!
*by K***N on February 19, 2024*

I was hooked on this book from the first page. It is hard to believe the cruelties, indignities and hardships Bethel experienced after her mother died. To think that women had to be sterilized in order to be treated in an “insane asylum” is unimaginable. Her treatment with antipsychotic drugs, ECT, hot/cold hydrotherapy and sterilization drugs for someone who didn’t need any of these things is truly “insane”! It’s a wonder she survived. Her determination to be reunited with her son is amazing. On a positive note, the gooseberry moonshine had to be wonderful! Thanks for writing this creative and heartwarming story!
