Narrado por: Hoda Kotb

A New York Times Bestseller

Today show coanchor Hoda Kotb shares the incredible stories of people who, when faced with impossibly challenging or tragic life situations, persevere—and even thrive—and asks how you would handle a game-changing event or decision right now if you could see ten years into the future.

New York Times bestselling author Hoda Kotb examines game-changing moments experienced by six different people—then revisits those people a decade later. From a mother of two who struggles with an abusive relationship, to a civilian hero of 9/11 who suffers tremendous personal loss in the wake of the terrorist attacks: the harrowing obstacles they faced shook them to their core, but each of these people found the strength to take the first step in a journey that changed their lives for the better. In these beautiful, astonishing, and life-affirming stories, Hoda reveals how adversity can unleash our best qualities: resilience, perseverance, gratitude, empathy, and creativity. This book will show you how to believe in the future, no matter how dark the present, and inspire you to take the first step in your own journey of personal growth.

I always wonder what happens to people we hear about on TV shows, in the news, etc. FINALLY a book that brings us up to date with amazing people from different walks of life.

My Mini Miracle

What made the experience of listening to Ten Years Later the most enjoyable?

This book is absolutely wonderful and uplifting! It definitely gave me hope in my own future and a better appreciation of life. I adore Hoda Kotb, so it was enjoyable to be able to listen to her tell the story.

Who was your favorite character and why?

HOW CAN I PICK? Each individual's stories were absolutely amazing!

Which scene was your favorite?

I enjoyed the "rags to riches" story at the end as well as the chapters about medical problems (no spoilers).

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Definitely! I probably listened to it in three chunks, but it is definitely a great "binge" read.

So uplifting

I watch her every morning on her show and didn't know she was such a great writer. Loved hearing the inspiring stories. I was on vacation in Sarasota and could not wait to walk the beach every day for hours while I was listening to her book. Great!!

Don't listen if depressed

I like Hoda's writing and delivery but what a bunch of sad and depressing stories! Maybe if it was read it would not have quite the same effect. Thank goodness that the last profile was one of rags to riches, rather than another gut wrenching tale. I gt that the moral of the story is resilience but only 20% of each story is "since" the tragedy. I am just glad it's over! Whew.
