Pretty good...almost as good as the first, Blackbird. Stayed up way to late reading this one just to finish it! Would be interested in hearing more of Jennifer Lauck's story and how she is doing now.

Second half of Blackbird, but you don't have to read that first to understand this book. This is a memoir that is heartbreaking and inspiring. Beautiful read. You will fall in lve with Ms. Lauck.

Great sequel to Blackbird. I was really moved by Jennifer's story. Hard to image all these things actually happened. I highly recommend this book, but read Blackbird first!

"Still Waters" starts exactly where "Blackbird" stops. I actually liked the second book better, maybe because Jennifer is older and it felt more relatable to me. I am amazed that Jennifer Lauck was able to overcome her many difficulties growing up and go on to write about them. Hopefully, these books will be an inspiration to others with difficult childhoods.

Good continuing story from Blackbird

I read the first book and was fascinated by the author's telling of her childhood. Although very sad and sometimes disturbing, Ms. Lauck' fierce spirit keeps this book from being too depressing. The author is a true survivor. I enjoyed both books, they were very hard to put down. Recommend highly to anyone who enjoys people stories.

I thought this book was better than her first. Having grown up in a loving home, I can only imagine what children of abuse and neglect go through.

A very captivating audio book-I loved this story. 6 hours running time-read by the author.
