Perhaps like many of you, I read Glennon's essay in the Huffington Post as it made the rounds through Facebook last year. I felt like she was writing things I have thought in a way that I wish I had 1/100th of her talent to express.
I am delighted to be on this book tour. The book combines many of her essays from her blog with a few new items so that the book flows and carries some important threads throughout.
I really loved this book. Not because I agreed with everything she said, because I didn't. But she is refreshingly honest and true to herself and her readers. She made me think about how I view myself and others, and especially about my relationships with my family. And while a lot of the book is pretty serious, there are some essays that had me laughing so hard I couldn't wait to share them with my husband. And then we laughed together some more.

This sounds like a book that makes you think and count your blessings. I'll have to look for it.
Generally, I don't read Blogger's books, because they end up disappointing...but I think I'd be willing to give this a try.
I'm glad that you enjoyed this book even though you didn't necessarily agree with everything that author said.
Thanks for being a part of the tour! I'm featuring your review on TLC's Facebook page today.
