Must Read!               Finding Her Way   by    Sydney J. Reuben

I'm always searching for a good book. So I was surprised when there was one sitting on the table next to me for the past year. My friend had given it to me, and I promised to read it right away. Then life got in the way—you know what I mean.
 
For me, it was writing a book with my coauthor, Deb Brandon. It was deadlines for my radio podcast and writing a variety of articles for which I was being interviewed. It was ukelele lessons then, playing uke on the beach with about sixty members of the Santa Cruz Ukelele group. It was overseeing the painter for my house, and it was plunging the bathroom sink drain—you know, everyday ordinary life.
 
But one day, at loose ends and with a couple of minutes to spare, I picked up my friend’s book. I sat under the umbrella on my deck and read "Finding Her Way” by Sydney J. Reuben until the sun had set and I could see no more. 

BUT . . .

 
I saw myself in Sydney’s words—in so many of her stories. How did she know? 
 
I couldn’t wait to meet Sydney on the corner the next day and give her a big hug.
 
I hope you will find Sydney’s book as uplifting and enlightening as I did. Let me know what you think, and I’ll tell Sydney when I meet her on the corner. 

 MY AMAZON BOOK REVIEW

Finding Her Way
by Sydney J. Rueben is brilliant. In her honesty and her openness, Reuben leads the reader on a journey of discovery. Through a variety of literary formats, poetry, prose, fairy tales, and anecdotes, the author lays bare her inner self as she reveals stories from her life—some painful, some embarrassing, some joyful. Reuben is searching for peace while discovering her own awareness.

The essence of Finding Her Way touched me, inspired me, and will stay with me always.

You can find the book on Amazon.

    I am the author of Prisoners without Bars: A Caregiver's Tale. It's the true story of how my husband almost left me--three times.
    He had three brain surgeries in less than two weeks. Those are pretty drastic measures, don't you think? I told him if he didn't come back to me, I would never forgive him. And guess what? It worked. He did!​
