What an incredible woman!

In her own humble words this woman describes her life of hard work and repeated sorrows as if it is common to all. Perhaps it was in her lifetime common to all. How she can continue to see happiness after what life has dealt her is a testament to the strength of many of our ancestors.

Great story about a truly amazing woman.  Incredibly talented and beautiful, and an amazing soul.  Having her mom on board gives a counter balance to what shaped her life and adds a very interesting dimension.

After reading this book I feel proud of her for a couple of reasons one for surviving and two for remaining such a compassionate person . How on earth did she do that . I think that with all of the struggles and neglect that went on in her life it is pretty amazing how much she cares about other people !!! She loves her son !!! Telling This story could not have been easy she did it really well! I really could not put it down . I don't usually read memoir type books . I saw her on oprah and to me she seemed genuine and before the show was over I ordered the book . It came the next day and it was hard to put down .I cannot imagine a child being raised that way and still coming out as a Nice person ,She really seems like a nice person and I think it makes the reader wish her well. I know I did

I personally know the author and never, ever would had had any inkling that she lived and experience such a life. It brought me to tears once I found out. To see and speak to her now, one would never know what she had to endure. She is such a beautiful person, physically, mentally and spiritually. And yes, she is still standing and standing tall and strong. To all, both males and females who had to go through this type of life and can boldly inform others about it, you have my utmost respect!!!!

I've known Susan for 6 years now and I know that she went through all of this! She still suffers from physical complications from her accident but with the Lord she triumphs and perseveres through life. She's one amazing women and has a huge heart for God. I can't even imagine going through all the pain and suffering she has gone through. So glad she finished her book! Congratulations Susan!!

Very close to home.  She has a incredible support network.  Speaking for those of us who do not. I'm so envious!

First, I have to get over the fact that she is likely the most beautiful woman on television. She cannot help it. She JUST IS! So, I like to hear her opinion on everything appropriate for women. She is my age, so I see her as a role (fashion) model to aspire to be. I love her wit and her generosity to women. ALL WOMEN SHOULD BEHAVE LIKE THIS WOMAN! Listen, learn, watch, and see how an accomplished professional SHOULD treat people who seek deeply personal and potentially temporarily humiliating advice (until they learn better). She does not tolerate body-shaming and won't let you do it to yourself, a healthy approach for retraining self-talk.

If every trade and profession told it like she does (and her cohort, Clinton), the world would be a  more transparent, clear-minded, gentle place. She knows what she is talking about. She is what she teaches. GET THE BOOK and start dressing like the beautiful woman you absolutely are!

It's amazing how this woman survived.  A true inspiration to all women, and for those of us who were not part of this horrifying period, a true appreciation of America, and how privileged we are to have been born here in this country.

I attended one of her testimonies. It was very heart warming. She is a beautiful lady inside and out. She is an inspiration. A must buy video.

I am amazed at this woman who changed the world [okay, only the Southern seaboard] and did it within the confines of a restrictive society. She had wonderfully enlightened and supportive men in her life, but she didn't always need them. This woman is part of our American Heritage and she is amazing.
the author did a very good job of putting flesh on the bones of a historical figure. Thanks

As my Senator and as our First Lady I knew how hard working and studious she is, but still her level of diplomacy, competence and her class act are stunningly impressive even after all these years of exposure.  I would love to read the hundreds of pages of edits too.  My eyes filled with tears while reading her vivid descriptions of several subjects in various chapters.  We need more public servants like this one.  A true role model and a rare heroine.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading about this great lady.  She did so much in her life, and it was beautifully told in a way that flowed seamlessly and made me cheer for her every step of the way.  We need more selfless people like Lupe!  Thanks for sharing your story.

She is such a wonderful worker and person, never thought of herself only what the children needed and so young. We all could take lessons from her life. I wish I could meet her. In fact I would like to meet all the characters I read about.

I loved this book because of how much I learned about this magnificent woman, who is my age-mate. The stories of her experiences she had with sex discrimination resonated with me. Both she and Gloria Steinem's experiences validated mine, tho I do not put myself in their category! I closed the book and truly felt I had been reading about a sister! I could not respect any current figure in the public eye more! Have recommended to all my friends and now have a lending list for it.
