I listened to this audiobook because it was chosen for the Big Library Read at CPL. It was not particularly enjoyable or engaging. I feel that the author had some very interesting life experiences that were glossed over in a paragraph, while she went on and on about lose of luxury. It is a memoir, but it read like a whiny diary and did provide much insight or life lessons from having to rough it. I learned a little bit about raising goats. But only a little.
