What
a Charmed Life I Lead
Written
by Linda Lee King
Reviewed
by Author Roy Murry
‘What
a life,’ Ms. King has had, can only be defined as chaotic. In stating that she
is not an educated writer, this author proceeds to tell the reader of her confused
existence.
From
early remembering, the story is told, not shown, through an interesting
dynamic – explaining her dysfunctions’ as a child through the age of
fifty-four. Those mishaps were fueled by family DNA, as she informs us in the last chapters is confusing in itself.
Historically,
this life adventure is a rollercoaster ride from the ’60s through 2009, where she
receives an awakening, “It’s not where you start out, Linda, but where you end.”
It wasn’t the PTSD, which she was affected with; it was how that psychological the defect was not treated that led her to her confused states.
Now
partially treated, Ms. King’s paranormal self tells us how most of the world is
in a traumatic state. I give her that. But her decision processing was not
totally controlled by others – she had a free will that she did not use
effectively throughout her life.
The
story was told from a homegrown educational coherent point of view. Well-structured
with some uneducated grammatical and punctuation errors, the prose keeps the reader engaged.
If
this is “The Book,” that she states she was writing all her life, I believe Ms.
King’s endeavor is complete. What next?
