Wow. just Wow. This book was sooooo good. I've followed Glennon on social media and Momastery for a while now, and always love her message. It always seems to strike a chord within me somewhere. But to read this book, with her raw truth so beautifully laid out and shared, felt like I received a gift. When I read I like to jot down passages that speak to me, but it became clear to me that there were too many in here to jot down. Overall her message about being true, about choosing between being “perfect and admired, or real and loved”, her message for young women about the lies that the world wants to tell them about being a woman, about being sexy, about pretty versus beautiful, about sending out our representative or our real self, all had me saying “This! This is Truth!” I'm so glad I read this.
This book cracked me open. It left me in tears at certain points. I could really relate to this book. I will buy my own personal copy
I thought this was going to about something different, but it was still interesting. holy heck I've been reading a lot of memoirs lately, I wonder why?
