"A profound book. Sometimes the nautical technicalities were a bit difficult but they were necessary to the book. Judy Sleavin is an amazing woman who, while being built of fortitude, shows how we need to be that way to overcome difficult times in our lives. Worth reading."
"If you love the ocean, the sea, and sailboats, read this book. If you want to be inspired by the power of love and connection to family, read this book. If you need a reason to live, read this. I laughed and cried immensely."
"This is about a close family who is spending a few years sailing the seas. Their boat is hit by a Korean ship. All but the mother dies. This is her story. Worth the time to read."
