'At times, it felt not dissimilar to Kate Holden’s In my Skin in that we are taken down sometimes dark paths through the eyes of a highly intelligent protagonist who knows the ‘danger’ they are in but which they are unable to escape.' - Paul, Editor
'Congratulations for speaking about your depression, and for getting your book published.' - Pam, bookshop owner
'I thought you had a lot of courage in writing that book I have often thought that some day I would like to write a book but I have to many painful memories' - Michele
'I think a 2nd book would be a good idea. The first grabs your attention and leaves you wondering what next.' - AZ
'Just like to say thank you for sending your book to me. I couldn't put it down once I started to read it. I have read it twice now, I hope you write more books.' - Anita R
'I have just finished your book. ( My girlfriend bought a copy) it was an interesting read, very brave of you to put your most private thoughts and feeling into a book for all to read. The only problem I have with it is, now I want to read what happens next. Well done Christina.' -Nigel

'Thanks, I got the book and your language is appalling young miss.'
'Congratulations on the book and your bravery in speaking out on depression. The world needs more people like you. If we all talked about it more and acknowledged that it is real and common a lot of progress could be made.' - Kerrin

Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: A Woman's Courage (Kindle Edition)
Devastated it finished. I don't necessarily believe that is the best title, but what an insight to a young lady, and the struggle of growing up, while completing your dreams, and sticking to your guns. An amazing insight into the teenagers struggle with direction and relationship challenges, within boundaries set by one self for success, happiness and life experience in a personal diary format.

'What an unbelievable experience reading your Book. Isn’t it AMAZING that you kept a Diary and to be able to have it published into a Book to Share with the Public. I like the way it has been written, such raw honesty. What a insight it has been for me and I could identify with some of your thoughts, feelings & behaviour and no doubt a lot of the readers will feel the same. It took a lot of courage for you to share your Journey of Depression with the Public. There would be many, many people who would be so Grateful to You for Sharing your Journey. I know a lot of people would not be able to do it.
Christina I feel you have a talent for writing and I want to Wish You All The Very Best For The Future.' - Cheryl
