Summary: Could be any of us princesses...
Review: Brings in to your life a deep inner shock when you confirm that even though perfection is impossible in a human being, you are a respectable and lovable one, with a great story to live, that could be starting TODAY. Shows you the way to get your self-esteem back, to be able to love and be loved and also explains how to stop blaming yourself for all attitudes and reactions of the loved one that you can not control and definitely are not your fault. We can only save ourselves it's our own responsibility to be better persons, you can support someone in the change but can not save them from themselves. Thanks to the author for the opportunity of finding out all these.

Summary: Perfect for the woman that seems to attract Jekyll/Hyde type
Review: I am a single mother of a beautiful 5 year old daughter. I read this book, and now am reading it with my daughter. I wish my mother would have read me this book as a child - maybe then I wouldn't have chosen so many not-so-great paths in my life. I feel every female should read this book and gain whatever wisdom they can soak in - it's full of wonderful words of advise/common sense. Thank you Ms. Grad.

Summary: Perfect for the woman that seems to attract Jekyll/Hyde type
Review: I can't tell you how much this helped to analyse why I seem to find myself with those type of men. You know the type I'm talking about, they are sweet when you meet then and as long as they are the center of your world. Once the novelty has worn off they become bitter and lash out.

The book helped me immensely.

Summary: The Princes Who Believed in Fairy Tales
Review: I could not put the book down. As crazy as it may seem this fary tale is in deed a story for modern times. I identified so much with the princess no matter how much she tried to be perfect and to please her prince she could never win. It is an eye opening experince specially for someone who has been through their own story. I personally am at the end of the story I know that there is happiness even without a prince. This book is great reading for someone who is meeting her prince or for someone who has left her prince. This book confirmed that I am where I need to be.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It teaches you how to be an independent person
Review: Marcia Grad has written some lessons that are really important for people who wanna be an independent person in the real meaning of independent.
Before reading this book, I always thought that being independence is only in the point of view of the real thing that I can see (e.g, material, freedom, etc). But the lesson from this book has remained me that the path of my life is sometimes using the map of someone (who I really trust) which is not suitable for me and remained me not to be rush on deciding something.

This book is not only teaching about "love", but the the books is teaching everybody to lead yourself in any situation that you're facing.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This book is changing my life ...
Review: My therapist gave me this book to read. I ordered one for my adult daughters too. The delivery is much like a fairy tale, and the prince in the story turns out to not be such a nice person. The personal growth of the princess had an enormous impact on me - I was weeping as I read towards the end, with my husband saying "what the heck is wrong" - it truly was that powerful (and I'm not a weeper).

For anyone who grew up in a verbally and physically abusive family, or ended up with someone who displayed the same traits, this book is wonderful!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Better than therapy
Review: Reading this book is better than therapy, since each reader can interpret it in their own way. Important for all woman, no matter what the age, to keep and reread whenever necessary. Great gift book, too. Arlene Millman, author of BOOMERANG - A MIRACLE TRILOGY.

Summary: Women, It's Time that We Stand UP For One Another
Review: Recently, while discussing being funded for my business, a woman whom I had previously thought was professional, who is in a network that I was going to join, responded to my discussions about getting funded for my business, saying, "Gee, don't you have a boyfriend who can get the money together for you?"

It's appalling when so many women have paved the way for us, only to end up with so many women still expecting other women to wait for a prince to come along - the prince has rust.

I recommend this book to all women and to men to read, because this is a great story about where our self-esteem begins, and how we struggle with the difference between our authentic selves and our socialized identities.

Read this book, and get a copy for one mother and daughter, who is interested in taking responsibility for their happiness.
