My life has been one hell of a rollercoaster ride, with plenty of "I never esperredit" moments.
I have cried. I have been broken. I have felt fear. I have had close shaves with death. I have been depressed. I have laughed. I have healed. I have been brave. I have survived.
Every experience has shaped the woman I am today - from surviving three civil wars to becoming the Juliet Ibrahim. In the journey through life, it is important to take stock of what was, what has been and what will be. I have always done this recounting, this reevaluation and reshaping of my life with my close-knit circle of family and friends. Now, I want to share with you these experiences that toughened and softened me; stories you have only caught glimpses of.
Every story, whether of triumph or failure, is one I celebrate because I am alive and I want you to join me in a toast to life.

This book is a must have. I'm in shock as to how one person can go through so much in life and still have so much kindness to offer. A toast to life book launch was indeed amazing. I dropped a tear at the launch and so did my mum and everyone with a heart.
A toast to life book is a book made to store memories and stories about Juliet Ibrahim. Sometimes making a life book is more important than creating a photograph album with identifying sentences giving dates, places and time. I've read this book and it has made me gain an accurate and deep understanding of life situations and problems because it can be hard to know where to start life.
A toast to life by the beautiful,smart and hardworking Juliet Ibrahim is a must READ. A very relatable book that touches on the ups and downs of life. Kudos darling, proud of you
3 hours well used. Spent the better part of my morning in the words of Juliet Ibrahim . And I felt different things reading this. I was angry, remorseful, happy, hopeful and most importantly inspired.
