Strong Health is an amazing story, full of images and description of experience of every kind. Besides, it's a book, that by reading it, you don't get bored, as there's a variety of feelings each time, that keeps our soul in suspense, but also excited with each seen of plot, raising our imagination as well, and bringing us to the position of narrator. It raises questions and thus answers, on the ''unpredictable'' things of life, and how we one acts each time, when one has to face comlication, make decisions, and trying to adapt to each new situation always. The struggle between heart and logic makes one have strong heart, and solves ''conflict'' between mind and heart. Also it describes, the dilemma, one may have, to the effort to make the ''right'' decision in order to arrange everything, the power of conscience and depth, and reason at the same time, and what will prevail in the end, trying to balance both in our actions. Until the end, writer SHELDON, makes an anatomy of human soul and mind, as well as rules and priorities, one follows in life (here grandfather of Sarah), the contradiction of feelings and mind each time, the ''WAY'' we act for same things and ideas, and treat circumstances, that are different for each person. Thus Charilie Sheldon, gives in his description mystery of life, and unpredictable things, that usually happen in life, and the way we treat them. In the way given by Sheldon, one has to follow, not eactly what one wants, but follow ''his' path in life...and proves that difficulties and problems are often for strong hearts, and make us even stronger..

I think it's a very different experience reading this book and hearing it on audiobook. I think I may have actually liked it better as an audiobook, because the author didn't use punctuation well. It totally distracted me from the story. I also had to go back and make sure I hadn't missed something when Sarah began her story! It was such a jarring transition!

This is a wonderful book. I loved how the author took Sarah on a journey that changed her and her life forever. Strong Heart is a matured, calm, extraordinary character. No threat could deter her strong spirit. Very unlike Sarah, Strong Heart reacted to situations with perseverance and great resolve. This character made the book worthy of a read.

After reading your review of Strong Heart I am a bit torn in my interest to read this book. I am intrigued with the action adventure and suspense aspect you describe wonderfully, yet I hesitate at your comments on your confusion with some of the storyline plot and the timeframe in which the female character goes missing. I appreciate your candor though, as I too, often, get confused in novels where the plot and timelines mix. I find I don't always enjoy these type of books as much. Well done.

Ooh, I’m excited by this being available as an audiobook. As I live near Seattle, I’m always thrilled to find books and other media set in the PNW. Looking forward to checking this out!

The book sounds very interesting I will make sure to add it to my shelves and read it, though I myself might prefer to read it than listen to audio. Thanks for the review.

From the review, I can deduce that the book is one unique variation from the various interesting adventure series I've read. Though I've not tried an audio book before, this one appears to be quite alluring. Looking forward to reading it for myself. Thanks for your review.
