I loved the way you started out your review. If you hadn't left the falling buildings a mystery, I never would have read my copy of this book. Great job!

From a sampling, this is an interesting memoir. It is always good to read something different that will make you think. Well done.

Relatable, especially to mothers, today's BOTD is a memoir that will inspire you to follow the path that leads you toward what you want most in life. Many of the reviews say the engaging stories and great editing make this a true page-turner. Thank you for your wonderful review; I've downloaded my copy. :-)

Thank you for the review. I'm not sure that a story about spirituality and self-discovery is my type of reading, although I can empathize with Susan's search to understand the meaning behind her dreams.

Foretold: An Epic Spiritual Journey by Susan Smith Davis is an inspiring story. I loved that part where Susie discovered herself on that journey. From the beginning, it sounded like a family drama. But the story was much more than that.

This story invites the reader to consider the possibility that life has a deeper spiritual meaning.
I enjoy reading stories of others' experience on their own personal spiritual journey. I got my free copy and have already started reading. So far it is very moving. Thanks for the inspiring review! :)

Memoirs especially of the spiritual sort are not really in my wheelhouse, and I am not a big reader of this genre. That said, I find your review intriguing especially your opening lines. I find myself wondering at the context of those falling buildings and how the author's dreams influenced her path in life. Nice to see you had a good time with the book.

I am not usually a non-fiction reader. I'm glad the author has led an inspiring life. I find the part about her vivid dreams interesting, as I also have extremely vivid dreams. Congrats to the author on BOTD!
