I found Aces High to be an emotional…
I found Aces High to be an emotional and thought-provoking memoir. Penny Hodgson shares her experiences with childhood trauma and explains how those experiences continued to affect different areas of her life as she grew older. What I appreciated most about the book was her willingness to be vulnerable about difficult parts of her past while still focusing on healing, resilience, and moving forward.
The discussion of Adverse Childhood Experiences, or ACEs, was especially interesting to me. It helped show that childhood trauma does not simply disappear when someone becomes an adult. Those experiences can affect relationships, emotional health, physical health, and the way a person responds to situations later in life. I thought combining this information with Hodgson's personal experiences made the subject easier to understand.
This book can be emotionally heavy at times. Some of the experiences discussed are painful and may be difficult for readers who have experienced trauma themselves. However, I don't think the book is meant to leave readers feeling hopeless. One of its strongest messages is that although we cannot change what happened in the past, it is possible to understand its effects and work toward healing.
One thing I would have liked was a little more balance between some of the trauma-related information and the personal storytelling. At certain points, there is a lot to process. Still, I think that reflects how complicated trauma and recovery can actually be.
Overall, I enjoyed Aces High and found it meaningful and informative. It gave me a better understanding of how childhood experiences can follow someone into adulthood and why addressing trauma is so important. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in memoirs, trauma recovery, emotional resilience, mental health, or personal growth.
I would rate Aces High 5 out of 5 stars.

Unless you have endless time and patience, I would not bother
Website is a bit of a scam and an absolute labyrinth for reviewers.
They assume people are just reading books at a speed that may be unrealistic and then "score" you on how badly you are maintaining their processes.
Then, when you finally review a book, the verification to actually get paid is impossible (I've since resigned from the book club after submitting a review three times to each editor rejecting it for something new) and was never paid for another review I did over 3 months ago. They will send you notifications about not finishing a book fast enough but when it comes to getting paid, there's no notification if you actually need to do anything.
Getting verified apparently appropriately enough requires adding someone on Facebook and paying them or alternatively waiting forever for any kind of response which never actually gets confirmed.
Absolute waste of time unless you are just sitting around with loads of spare time.

A good way to make a little money!
I tell everyone that this is a hobby that doesn't cost me anything. I love to read and to write. Reviewing books gives me the opportunity to get paid for doing what I love.

They were always there to guide me…
They were always there to guide me through the process. I had faith in them from the first step to the last and my faith was not displaced. 237 orders for my book in one day! That is results.
