Critic Reviews

“"A helpful guide for living with Celiac disease, with tips on eating out and dating, as well as appealing recipes...Her story will no doubt appeal to her fans and others with chronic health issues." -- Publishers Weekly”

"This book was so captivating and kept me interested throughout. As I told her, I was on pins and needles during the chapter titled In the Psych Ward. I couldn't believe that doctors and medical professionals could be so rude to put her through what she went through during that time (and many others throughout her journey). In Jennifer's Way, you get a glimpse of what it is like for so many living with Celiac disease... I was very impressed with Jennifer's willingness to open up and share her story with millions. I would recommend that those with Celiac disease as well as loved ones to those living with Celiac disease read this book. Eyes will be opened and understand built as you tearfully read one woman's Celiac journey."--GlutenFreeFrenzy.com "This book is frank, it's raw, compelling, and ultimately uplifting... Jennifer's Way is a page-turner of medical self-discovery that will give many people a new appreciation of Celiac disease."--Allergic Living "This is award-winning actress Jennifer Esposito's story of decades of ill health and emotional hardships, and her long search to find a reason for them...this is the story of how she took control and became a health advocate for herself and others. Part one shares her journey. In part two, Your Journey, she offers guidance, advice, recipes, and more to help you find your way." --Taste for Life "This is a story of hope...This book is a page turner. Esposito is an inspiration."--Living Without's Gluten Free & More "A helpful guide for living with Celiac disease, with tips on eating out and dating, as well as appealing recipes...Her story will no doubt appeal to her fans and others with chronic health issues." --Publishers Weekly
