What I'm reading right now: "Captivating... Unveiling the Mystery of a Woman's Soul", by John and Stasi Eldredge.
Why I'm reading it: Because, after hearing two of my close friends RAVE about it (thanks, Melissa T. and Jenn L.), I put it on my TO READ list. Now that I finally got around to having the money and time to go buy it... it's proving it's worth.
What I think about it: If I could buy a copy for every single woman in my life right now, I would. I'm trying to think up a way to do that, anyway. Insightful, and full of common sense therapy for little girls grown into women.
I recommend it to: anyone who's every been a little girl or, a grown woman; those who've had their hearts broken by anyone (and those who haven't); any parent of a little girl.
What it's about: being the "Beauty" of the story. It legitmizes the number one question we all have as women- "Am I lovely? Am I valued". Don't cringe, just read the book. It is not a boring read, in fact, it's entertaining, and and insightful.
Since I feel so strongly about the book, I'm going to try to organize a weekly/bi-weekly girls night out book club around the book. If you'd like to participate, please let me know what night would be good for you, and then we will determine the time and place to meet. I was thinking that we could have everyone bring a snack on the night we meet. I promise it would be worth your time. And just think of all the great company!
Amanda,
ReplyDeleteI think that is a great idea. I have read that book, but would read it again. It was definetely worth it the first time and I feel that I could get more out of it by reading it again.
Let me know when you want to get together!
Love,
Alicia
