I was kind of disappointed with this book. It didn't really keep my attention. I didn't connect with the main character at all. I honestly pushed myself to finish it. I might give this author another try in the future. ( )

Sweet book with a great main character. Goes down smooth. ( )

A story that is quite light and enjoyable to listen to, read by its author. Lots of interesting anecdotes on immigrant lifestyle and the chutzpah required to make it in the new world. I did enjoy the smart-ass style of the narrator/protagonist. ( )

This was a good one. The character development was on point, and I could feel the character's personality off the page. ( )

I really liked the main character thru most of the book until the last quarter. She was amazing in her ability to find ways to survive her childhood, her ways of not letting her disability stop her or make others assist her, her care and love for her husband, and her strength in running the company. Loved the descriptions of starting and running an ice cream empire along with surviving the depression. Initially I understood Lilly's desire to be better than her former family's company and wanting to prove it. After she became rich, I could not agree with her ways. Actually felt sorry for her when she met up with her Dad. ( )
