If You Find This Letter

My Journey to Find Purpose Through Hundreds of Letters to Strangers

De: Hannah Brencher

Narrado por: Jorjeana Marie

Fresh out of college, Hannah Brencher moved to New York and found a city full of people who knew where they were going and what they were doing. Lonely and depressed, she noticed a woman who looked like she felt the same way on the subway. Hannah did something strange - she wrote the woman a letter. When she realized that it made her feel better, she started writing and leaving love notes all over the city - in doctors' offices, in coat pockets, in library books, and in bathroom stalls. Feeling crushed within a culture that felt like connecting only on a screen, she poured her heart out to complete strangers. She found solace in the idea that her words might brighten someone's day.

Hannah's project took on a life of its own when she made an offer on her blog: She would handwrite a note and mail it to anyone who wanted one. Overnight her inbox exploded with requests from people all over the world. Nearly 400 handwritten letters later, she started the website The World Needs More Love Letters, which quickly grew.

A Love Letter to Dreamers

I LOVED this book immensely, particularly the first half. Hannah brencher is a dreamer, a woman who observes the little things in life and is not ashamed of it. I found her observations about her life and that of others, finding the hope in people, is refreshing. She gives hope to those others have thrown away and, even at a distance, wants to love people as who they are, without judgment, condemnation, or justification.
I found Jorjeana Marie's performance was terrific. She became Hannah Brencher, writing her letters, mourning her friend, hoping and loving and falling on her face.
This book will appeal to the dreamers, the poets, the spiritual.
Well done!

Awesome

As a letter writer for More Love Letters, I was beyond excited that this title was available on Audible. Hannah's story is amazing. I cried more than once. And my commitment to the letter writing movement has been renewed, even if it never flagged. I can't wait to share this with friends and family.

If You Find This Letter...

I loved it. It is beautiful, and inspirational. Filled with love and heart. Truly unforgettable!

Underrated

This book has a lot of heart. I felt like I was listening to a friend.

The 1st 3 hours is very slow!

It was difficult to get through the 1st 3 hours of the book with religious talk and no mention of writing the letters. Finally at the 3 hour mark the letters started. At least I like the narrator.
