Whither Thou Goests! You/ve Got To Be Kidding

Summary: Outstanding!
Review: I have been a long time fan of Ms. Thornton & always look forward to her newest publications. As a Psychologist and a Social Worker, this book gives a human perspective of the struggles of being thrust into a position that Ms. Thornton did not feel prepared (A minister's wife). She describes her ordeals with humor, but also with some pain. If I was teaching grad students in psychology or social work, I would have this on my mandatory reading list. The author's words are a macro and micro of our society, not only in the 1970's and 80's, but also are applicable today. Ms. Thornton's words apply to everyone. Great reading for any age. Enjoy!

Summary: FUNNY yet philosophical.
Review: These essays will have you giggling aloud at times, rejoicing at the changes in our society at others, and just plain counting your lucky stars for family and friends most of the time. In the fine tradition of Erma Bombeck, C.G. Thornton finds the universal humor in her particular life challenges. Though the book details her struggles to accept her role as a minister's wife, anyone anywhere who has felt out of place or uncomfortably challenged by a new situation can find humor and insight aplenty in these easy-to-read, bite-sized chunks of a wonderful woman's life story.
