My Angel My Hero

De: Brenda McDaniel

Narrado por: Amy Etienne

This book is a written testament to the power of love, faith, hope, and strength. It details the life and death of a woman named Snowe (my mother) who came as close to being an angel as possible. And a veteran of WWII who fought in the war as a Navy man. He also fought the demon of mental illness, and eventually won both battles. He was my father Earl who is my hero. It also tells about their family life, too. They both were the generation who saved the world from the evil of Nazism and the tyrant called Hitler. And they also suffered through the Depression. Both, especially my mother, were Christians with a strong faith that helped them through difficulties and hardships, and gave them joy and love all during their lifetime. And now, their love is eternal. Even in death, it continues for each other and their loving savior, Jesus Christ, and his father.

Review of My Angel My Hero by Brenda McDaniel

My Angel My Hero is a story of family, love, hope, courage and faith. Still young in marriage, Henry suffers mental illness. This comes from an incident while serving in the navy where he was predisposed to harmful gases. Snow, his young wife then and a nurse didn't give up on him. She instead gave up college to take care of him. Together they have four children, Brenda, the author, being the third born. Their life is full of challenges and they put God at the centre of it all. I loved Steve's and Brenda's relationship, we all have that favourite sibling. This memoir is narrated with passion and from the narrator's voice, one can tell that it is written with love. There's nothing that I disliked. This book would suit anyone living with a person suffering from mental illness.

My Angel, My Hero

This book was a cathartic book written to memorialize a couple who dealt with some real life health issues in a time when they were not discussed openly. It shows ways they dealt with these issues.

Beautiful

What a beautiful tribute to her mother and father. Also this book is further proof that faith and love of God can gets us through anything, even a loved ones difficult struggle with mental illness! Also, the narrator’s sweet voice was right for this book.

Interesting Listen

My Angel My Hero was heart warming memoir about loving Christian family. The family used their faith to help them get through tough times. This quick, inspirational book packs a lot of information into a short audio presentation. Very nice!

Emotiional Story

This is the emotional journey of two people who were deeply in love, but suffered the effects of fightinig in WWII, then living through the depression. It is a true story and that always makes me feel more connected to the story. It is a sweet clean story, but have your tissue ready. It is also an inspirational book. It will be an hour well-spent.

The narration was a good and read as though the author was telling the story. Justly so.

I requested this audiobook from the author and am voluntarily leaving this honest review.
