A compelling true story
I enjoyed this first person account of real life struggles, hopes and dreams that takes an entertaining and winding path to the finish line. It caused me to pause and consider my own path and purpose....
Authentic and Inspiring
This book came across as very authentic and inspiring. I would highly recommend.
Never could keep me engaged.
The whole time I found myself wondering when it would end or when it would get better. It didn't do either.
An inspiring book that will bring tears and joy
Did I Ever Thank You, Sister? is a heartwarming story of human triumph, of surviving against all odds. Itâs a journey of self-discovery and remembrance. Sal Di Leo grew up in an orphanage outside Chicago, and had a troubled childhood that led him to make some wrong choices as an adult. His childhood scars put him on an aggressive quest for power and money as an adult, and this all soon led to failures, until a friend convinced him to go back to his roots, and the life lessons he learned despite his struggles as a child.
The book often brought me to tears because of how many challenges Sal and his siblings had to face in their youth. Reading about Salâs dreams, tribulations, and how he grew and changed as a person was very inspiring. I received a free copy in exchange for an honest review.
