I identified with many parts of the book. I too deal with depression and mobility issues. I was filled with much hope reading that she too was flat out miserable and grumpy at times. She fell, figuratively and literally, and always got back up; to a happier place. -- Ellie, Modern Day MS I feel there is kinship here, in the pages of A Quiet Roar. Redl reaches out. Redl writes her own reflection, which is also my reflection, which is also yours. I never used to believe in community, solidarity, group therapy, but now I understand. Now I see a desire, which is also Redl's desire, in myself, to somehow and in some way be seen. -- Brianna Albers, Monstering Heidi Redl has written a story about living with MS as it progresses degree by degree and year after year. But this is a story about stubbornness, perseverance, courage, hope, and a good deal more success than failure. It is a book we can all learn from about how to get through and past the many adversities and travails of a life. I think you should read and learn from it. -- Sharon Butala, author of Where I Live Now (Simon and Schuster Canada, 2017)
