"Sally Read's story is the best and liveliest account of a conversion for a generation. It is a story of divine grace as moving and unexpected as it is luminous and profound. There is not a wasted brush-stroke, not a blurred line. It is an absorbing story, a tale that will grip readers all the way through to the end."—Paul Murray, OP, Angelicum University; Author, T.S. Eliot and Mysticism
"Every story of conversion has the potential of conceiving another. Each give's witness to the work of grace. In this brilliantly written, candid, sometimes shocking unveiling by Sally Read, we see vividly the fingerprints of the Holy Spirit on a heart once impenetrably hard and shut off, but then opened and reborn by the merciful joy of our Triune God.— Marcus Grodi, EWTN Host, The Journey Home
"Warning: Don't start reading this book unless you intend to finish it. I started the first page, and was completely captured until the end. Not only is Sally Read's story gripping, but the words flow and permeate like the early morning sunbeams over a pleasant misty valley. An engrossing story of joyful discoveries for a modern world."— Steven K Ray, Author, Crossing the Tiber
"Sally Read brings to her memoir a poet's sensitivity to language, imagery, and emotion. Her vivid, evocative scenes of life in Rome, London, and elsewhere help to show that conversion involves the whole of a person: intellect, emotions, relationships. This well-written account will be of interest to skeptics and believers alike."—Holly Ordway, Ph.D., Author, Not God's Type
"Permeated with brutal honesty and deep love, this is a profoundly moving spiritual autobiography of a born and bred atheist who converted to the Catholic Faith; a faith which she states is 'the only solution to the human condition.' Certain to be thought provoking and edifying for skeptics and convinced Catholics alike."— Roy Schoeman, Author, Salvation Is From the Jews
"When a poet meets God, beauty becomes incarnate. Sally Read's conversion story reads like a modern Song of Songs - unflinching, gripping and enchanting."—Marie Cabaud Meaney, Author, Embracing the Cross of Infertility
"It has been said that the greatest love story is that of a soul who falls in love with God. Sally Read's conversion story dramatically proves that theory. Her story will make you appreciate your own faith and love for Christ and his Church." —Terry Barber, Author, How to Share Your Faith with Anyone
