It's Another Blog Tour. This time I went with a bit of a different genre then I usually do.

My Thoughts:
The book has a lot of wisdom, however, I believe it was presented poorly. Mothers and grandmothers are not teenagers, they are grown women. And this book seemed to of had been written for a teenage audience with stress quizzes and the like. When I was little I desperately wanted this "journal" for girls that had every quiz imaginable...what guy is right for you, how you should do your hair, what make you should wear, what kind of friends you should have, how I should paint my nails on Wednesday vs. Friday.. So I asked my mother. And I must say thank you to God for giving me this kind of mother because her reply to me was, "You don't need that." She had also said some other things about the book, but in short she told me the book was trash. I still wanted it because Susie Joe had it, but mom was always there to say,"no". And I'm sure you can figure out for your selves why buying that book would have been a huge mistake.
I got the same feeling when reading this book. Not the, "I really like people telling me what to do based off of a random quiz of which I cannot tell if it is accurate or not". But the feeling of, "What am I...8?".
Other people may not feel this way. If you like to take quizzes I encourage you to read it for your self.
