"I enjoyed the stories and memories as I had a picture in my head of what was happening in the stories. When I reflected upon the entertaining stories of childhood, I realized how much the mental illness of Faye's sister affected the entire family. I had an empathy that ran deep in my veins with this young girl that made her own way through her lonely ventures.;"
"She focused on smells of her surroundings and that is something I can relate to as I do this myself and hadn't thought much of it until reading this book. I believe Faye was born with a free and positive spirit that is exuded in this book. Her love for her sister, despite the mental illness, is vast and it is apparent in this book. I did not get any sense of bitterness but that of love and search for hope. I also enjoyed the wonderful pictures in the book. It was nice to have faces to go along with the stories.;"
"I highly recommend this book to everyone whether you have experienced mental illness in your family or not.;"
