Book: From Nothing Into The Woman of God: Spiritual Life
Author: Christy Sanderson

Language: English
Rating: 4/5
“From Nothing Into The Woman of God: Spiritual Life” penned by the author Christy Sanderson is the story of Christy’s life. Author has shared about her trust in God and how He has given her many things in life. Christy is from a small town known as Canton, Mississippi. God is the C.E.O. of her life.
I totally agree with the author when she said that some people only see doubts and unbelief in their life instead of seeing prosperity in their life. If we have bad experiences in life, they are to make us stronger and prepare us for what lies ahead. I agree with this as I have faced similar situations in life. The author has lost many things in her life but through her faith in God, she has gained them back. Christy was saved by Jesus when she was having thoughts to do suicide.
By helping others she is paying back to Jesus. I really appreciate this and if God/someone has helped us in life then we should also help someone to make their life better. This book has inspired me to keep on finding my purpose in life. Also, our struggles/failures are necessary as they make us stronger so we shouldn’t get upset because of them.
Through her story, the author wants to help others in finding their purpose in life. This story is well written and I am glad to get my hands on this amazing book. Content is mature and sensitive so I like to recommend this book to adults who are comfortable reading about topics like suicide. Writing style of the author is great. I liked the title of the book. Go ahead with it.
Girl written by Maria Straw -Çinar is a riveting tale about lost innocence and a girls struggle for freedom. Very rarely I come across novels that make use of poetic language in a fiction.

The main thing that captured my attention in this novel is author’s strong command on language. Cover photo of the book and the title looks according to the story. Author has used good vocabulary and I had to refer dictionary many times.
