Summary
A moving, exciting, and heartfelt American saga inspired by the author's own family memoirs, these words belong to Sarah Prine, a woman of spirit and fire who forges a full and remarkable existence in a harsh, unfamiliar frontier. Scrupulously recording her steps down the path Providence has set her upon - from child to determined young adult to loving mother - she shares the turbulent events, both joyous and tragic, that molded her, and recalls the enduring love with cavalry officer Captain Jack Elliot that gave her strength and purpose.
Rich in authentic everyday details and alive with truly unforgettable characters, These Is My Words brilliantly brings a vanished world to breathtaking life again.

beautiful
Would you listen to These Is My Words again? Why?
Yes I would and will, but I was going to read the only other book in the trilogy which idsbook 3. This is terrible and hurts your ears to listen to. No Sale
What other book might you compare These Is My Words to, and why?
It's so difficult to find a well read book, I don't know. Matt Bates reading The Flame Bearer
What about Amy Rubinate’s performance did you like?
She read beautifully, whilst keeping the element of a diary. Her vocal interpretation of the prose and dialogue was extremely sympathetic.
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
no. it was all good for me. She's definitely a keeper
Any additional comments?
More care in choosing books onterpreted with this quality. Nicola Walker is excellent, but you only have her reading one short book

Disappointing Story & Irritating Naration
The story started off promisingly then dwindled off into a mundane monologue. Perhaps because this book in supposed to be a fictional diary, rather than a novel, there was no progression and no ending. The main character became increasingly irritating and dull as time went on. The narration made a bad situation worse by giving a hardened, driven pioneer woman the feathery, whimsical voice of a giddy girl, and the children in the story almost comical ‘baby talk’. It’s rare for me to say this, but I definitely wouldn’t recommend this one.
