Since Patricia Angeles was a child she has had great doubts, a lot of creativity, and a great capacity for imagination. Patricia Angeles tells us her story, which begins with a description of her environment and her early interest in books and writing. Then she tells readers about the most influential people in her life, mainly her family, who always supported her. She lived in Manila, Philippines, and after finishing her studies, she emigrated with her family to the United States in search of better opportunities. Here we see her fearlessness in various experiences and jobs, from helping in a clothing store to achieving a great banking career.

Midpoint: A Memoir does more than just recount a dramatic life story. It’s proof that it’s possible to be a successful woman, a great mother, and maintain a willing mind for change. Patricia Angeles is honest in describing that her path through life was not easy. We see it in her anecdotes of youth, maturity, and maternity. However, she teaches readers the value of making their own decisions, celebrating successes, and learning from their mistakes.

Patricia Angeles’ love of reading and writing is evident. The anecdotes are short, varied, engaging, and always convey a lesson. In that aspect, I would have liked a little more description and fuller explanations because I felt the stories sometimes moved quite fast. In general, the book’s formatting is well maintained, with a pleasant presentation and inspiring content. And while this story is appropriate for all audiences, I think a more mature audience will be able to better empathize with and appreciate the immense effort she put out over a lifetime.

Midpoint: A Memoir is perfect for showing people that there are always opportunities for change and growth. Patricia Angeles demonstrates the importance of not giving up and adapting to new opportunities. This is a perfect choice to persuade you to take risks and encourage you to enjoy life. Midpoint: A Memoir is a poignant and inspirational memoir that will motivate you to experience all the things life has to offer.
