“Standing Ovation was by far one of the most intriguing and  absorbing books I have read in a long time . I found it hard to put down , but yet didn’t want it to end. I had to periodically  remind myself that this was a true story and not a non fiction novel.  The author is an “open book” with her life and the story is told with raw honesty and no pretense. Best of all she faces every challenge  with humor - which makes it that much more enjoyable .  I highly recommend this book , and I am happily anticipating the next one  to follow .”

“The standing ovation is a beautifully written, poignant portrayal of a young woman’s struggle to become her own person. The author exposes her life with raw harsh detail, taking accountability for her part in the chaos which surrounded her memories. She shares the difficulty she faced in the building of self-respect and personal growth. This memo is a must read for those of us who may have overcome similar circumstances and gives hope to those who were confronting their own challenges. “
