Ratings and reviews

Oprah is an extraordinary, remarkable, one-of-a-kind, inspiring woman. What I wanted is to listen to Oprah's voice, but a big chunk of the book filled with others self-help celebrities' quotes. First, I listened to the free part of the book and was hooked, so I purchased it. While listening further, I was getting disappointed more and more. Also, the words God and Lord are beeing mentioned too often in the book.

omg! Wang you made my morning.. (it helps to teach English...) lmfao.. I sometimes wonder do the authors know what publishers put out.. this audio was neither enticing or captivating..

good book, just a short listen and I found it interesting. I was a little disappointed when I discovered it wasnt a deeper book. I felt like it was more a collection of interviews.
