Girls on Track: A Parent's Guide to Inspiring Our Daughters to Achieve a Lifetime of Self-Esteem and Respect
Review Date: 3/28/2010


I'm looking forward to enrolling my daughter in one of her programs if I can find a group close to me- but if not I'll be able to use the information from the book to help my daughter not feel cornered by the girl box. I think the ideas from this book are really great and wish I'd had something like this when I was going through that awkward stage. Like the author herself says I sometimes still feel that I need help reconnecting to my true me and not allowing myself to be pressured into to certain thoughts and ideas just because they are expected of me. I highly recommend this book!

I read this based on a recommendation from Outlander Series fans. I've finished that series and needed something to help me wait for the next book. I had trouble getting into the story in the beginning but along the way I got swept up by the many interesting characters and their interwoven story lines. It was a very enjoyable read. I too would recommend this series to any Outlander fans or fans of historical fiction. I'll be reading the rest of the Wilderness Series as soon as I can.

A fun read. It's half about her struggles with her weight issues and half romance novel.
IMPORTANT TO NOTE: this book although a different cover and title is the same story as "The Perfect Fit: Fat Free Dreams Just Don't Taste the Same"

Sock & Glove: Creating Charming Softy Friends from Cast-off Socks & Gloves
Review Date: 6/16/2010


Great ideas for stuffies using those odd socks and gloves that turn up around the house. Kid and adults will love the animals- each one will become a unique creature with tons of personality.

I liked The Moonstone, also by Wilkie Collins, but was very disappointed in The Woman in White. I kept waiting for some big revelation...and waiting and waiting. Others might like this but for me it was a lot of reading for an anti-climactic ending.
