Self-help ✦ Penny’s Take
Barefoot to Benefactor
Lenny Peters · 2021
76/100
👍 Worth It
Lenny Peters's journey from rural Kerala to founding a chain of income-blind medical clinics in North Carolina is a genuinely compelling story, and his faith is woven through it without being preachy. The fact that all proceeds go to his Foundation adds a layer of authenticity that memoir-as-self-promotion books usually lack. Readers who respond to Christian immigrant success narratives will find this one of the more grounded examples of the genre.
