Me:
Long stretch of reading rutitis? Check.
Unapologetic Doubting Thomas? Yup.
Just the right book at the right time? Mmm hmm.

Her:
Jen Hatmaker is a truth sayer. Her BS meter is on point, and she writes with such a conversational tone that you won’t want to put this one down until the very last drop. Even then, you’ll want to go back and revisit some chapters both in the near future and in years to come. It’s that good.

The book:
Divided into five sections
WHO I AM
WHAT I NEED
WHAT I WANT
WHAT I BELIEVE
HOW I CONNECT

Laced with:
just enough personal stories to make you feel like you’re curled up on her couch with a cuppa, Hatmaker sprinkles her dry wit and deep faith into dispelling our twisted body images, rooting for (and never against) our fellow women comadres, when to say yes and how and why to say no, as well as my personal struggle-learning to ask for help.

Make sure:
to read through to the FINAL THOUGHTS. Her challenge to craft your own 12 statements won’t seem so daunting after reading hers.
