I love love loveeeee this book.
This should be a staple in young women’s book collection. I promise you!
As one looking for self development, this should definitely be on your list.
The ultimate aim of this book is to encourage women.
If you haven’t guessed by now, this book is targeted towards women; to be the best unapologetic version of themselves.
“As women, we are trained to seek our wholeness and value and to find love through others. Fifty years ago, we were told a husband and children would complete us- that was about our only option. Today, what makes us worthy might be a beloved, our career, or even following a chosen spiritual path. We rarely see ourselves as perfect just the way we are.”
I couldn’t have said it any better.
In addition, there are so many double standards in society today such as women being considered a bitch if she stands up for herself whereas, for men in the same predicament, he is considered a boss.
What I love about this book is that in no form is it criticizing men but demonstrates how we can uplift ourselves in spite of how we may be viewed.
Moreover, I will now discuss my likes about this book:
There are quotes at the beginning of each chapter.
The book is easy to read. There is nothing like trying to read but struggling to understand the terminology.
Although, the book is easy to read, there is a chapter titled explanation of terms! It breaks down all the essential terms that are mentioned throughout. Perfect!
Plus, there are relatable stories- Throughout the book. The author includes how she picked herself up during a turbulent time in her life. If she can do it, so can we.
Further reading- Towards the end of the book, along with each chapter, the author recommends other self-development books to help the reader to apply the chapter to your life.
List of websites you can find to support further self development.
Gives you homework to do! As mentioned with the other books I have read prior, there are some tasks and questions that you can do to assist with your development.
Now for the dislikes

In conclusion, if any of you amazing women read this book, do let me know how you found it and how it changed your perspective.
