Life in Spite of Me by Kristen Jane Anderson Book Review

Wow..that is the words that come to mind when I think of this book. I read it in 2 days. She is such an inspiration to people. She was a young lady who suffered from depression and always felt like she didn't belong or what was her purpose in life and I totally related to her on that. Cause I have struggle with depression and those same issues. One night though it all got to be to much for her and she went and laid down on train tracks and the train could not stop in time and pretty much the whole train went over her and it's amazing,she survived it,but lost both her legs in the process. She was very close to dying. She talks in the book about how she grew up in church,her time in the hospital and teaching herself how to move and do for herself with no legs. She is being fitted for some legs to help her walk again. She already has been in some but they give her some pain, but after she realized she needed God in her life and was saved and now she feels she has a purpose in life,to help others suffering. She's not bitter or nothing. She is glad that her suicide attempt actually saved her life. What a great Read about God's amazing power!!

I received this book from Waterbrook Multnomah for free for my honest review on the book
