Just finished reading My Beloved World by Sonia Sotomayor. [View all]

It was the first book I downloaded to my new IPad. I have a new heroine. She is an amazing, remarkable, person. She has earned her way to where she is now, out of poverty, predjudice, even dealing with an incurable serious health condition, through her inexhaustible energy and willpower, intelligence, humility, and powerful desire to serve others. It is an fascinating read.
