Tattered and Mended by Cynthia Ruchti Book Review, Book Tour and Giveaway

About the Book

Tattered and Mended: The Art of Healing the Wounded Soul (Abingdon, July 2015)
A crumbling statue. A torn tapestry. A discolored painting. 
Artisans can reclaim exquisite beauty from the broken, frayed, and hopefully shattered—perhaps once thought beyond repair. But what about us? What of the wounds that keep us from living the life we want to live?
In Tattered and Mended, readers walk through a gallery of reclaimed and restored art as well as broken and restored lives of those who have gone before us. With a gentle touch and personable wisdom, Cynthia Ruchti shows how even the most threadbare soul can once again find healing and hope.

My review;

I just finished reading a beautiful book by author Cynthia Ruchti called "Tattered and Mended". The book is a self help book that gives the reader examples of how we can make ourselves happy again ever after it seems almost impossible. She goes on to give us heartfelt stories of others and what trials they have gone through in their lives. It is a very nice story of hope and faith. I give this book a 4/5. I was given this book by Litfuse Publicity Company. All opinions a re my own.
