My Thoughts
I don't usually read memoirs/biographies, so this is not my usual genre. I don't gain much enjoyment from reading them, so stick to non-fiction that interests me. I was confused at times while reading as we kept jumping around in time. It would be x amount of time after Blair died and then the next chapter would be shortly after Bill died. It was encouraging to see how Shirley Quiring Monzena found peace and joy through God.

More from Shirley

Can you find love again on a couples matching site? Yes. And no. In my first book, Second Chances, I share how I found love and married second time on a matching site. Seventeen months after our marriage, my husband died. I didn’t think I’d ever love again, but after time, explored the same website only to be crushed with disappointment. My dreams were destroyed. As a result, I learned to fully surrender to God and be contented in whatever state I was in—married or single. This book continues my story and ends in joy! Find out what happens in this second book. God blesses us Beyond Second Chances. Read my story and be encouraged.
