Really enjoyed this book. Great plot and engaging, believe characters. I was drawn right into the story. Would definitely recommend.

Amber Wootton does a great job in her new memoir - Gardening with Guns. The story is about how she overcame her obstacles to become who she is today. Written as a novel, it is intriguing and fascinating. A book I would highly recommend.

WOW! I know a lot of people who need to read this book! Amber Wootton's story has many highs and lows with few calm periods to try and figure out where her life is going. A very fascinating, yet troubling, story of her adolescence and how she can see echoes of her life then in her present. Her reactions will leave you cheering her on even though she takes the toughest choice. Everyone should read this book and share it with their family and friends.

Unfortunately what came across my kindle was a jumble. It started with an HR interview then went into a campground scene? I can't get it to work so I'm not going to be reviewing.

Thriving and Not Just Surviving
This is the memoir of a very emotionally difficult childhood and the exceptional woman who survived it. This is a riveting book. A full gamut of emotions is brought about while reading this book. From rage to despair, the only tears not shed were those of joy. The strength at the core of this woman is evident as she faces serious marital issues after 20+ years in a relationship when she should be thinking of being an empty-nester. Having gone through a divorce in my late 40s after a 25 yr relationship, I can relate to this! I read this book in one sitting. I was totally engrossed. I know that I will read this book again. I received this ARC book for free from Net Galley and this is my honest opinion.
