review

I read a book when I was a teenager that impacted my life in a big way. I believe that Life, In Spite of Me by Kristen Jane Anderson could be that book for today's generation of teenagers and young adults. This book tells Kristen's story of how, as a depressed teen, she attempted to commit suicide but survived. She shouldn't have lived, but God had plans that she was unaware of! His plans to use her and her incredible story were something that she could not comprehend.

Today, when you look at her picture and read her story you are amazed at how full of life and joy she is. She exudes confidence and an appreciation for life that she had not experienced before. She is very real when talking about the struggles that God brought her through. I truly believe that everyone who reads this book will be touched and their lives will be changed for the better!
