Summary: Surprisingly Insightful
Review: I loved this book. Its an easy read with fun anecdotes and full of home spun wisdom with a twist. Whilst the author is a Christian (and this does comes up) the issues she discusses are common to all of us and are addressed in an honest, open way. Whether you're stressed out, not having enough fun in your life, battling weight, or even a death in the family (or explaining the death of a pet to a child - a great story!) Linamen has reasurrance, advice and a story to tell.

Summary: FUN AND INSPIRATIONAL READING
Review: I read this book in 3 days because I couldn't put it down. This book was fun and inspirational. Karen offers NEW and PRACTICAL ways to deal with everyday ups and downs and how to overcome the extreme situations we all face now and then. After reading this book, I wanted to call Karen and go out for a "Girl's Night Out." !

Summary: Dealing with life
Review: I thought that this was a good book about how to deal with the trials that life gives us, specifically issues that women deal with. She talks about dealing with moods, kids, things from the past, weight, etc.
I liked the suggestion of making lists. Having lists and a set of goals is very useful in trying to get over a hurdle in life. I also loved the letter that she wrote to her friend, who dealt with issues from her childhood. It was such a beautiful letter, not minimizing her pain but wanting to be helpful.
The only thing I didn't care about was the title. The title seemed to imply that this book was about marriage, yet, the book wasn't really about that at all.
But I did enjoy the book very much and would recommend it.

Summary: Absolutely worth your time and money
Review: Ms. Linamen helps us women see we are all in this troublesome and beautiful world together. She very encouragingly and courageously shares her painful stories so we feel less alone.We know life is tough. She acknowledges that while giving us encouragment and suggestions on making life more enjoyable. This book continues where "Hand Over the Chocolate and No One Will Get Hurt" left off. Ms. Linamen discusses friendship, taking chances, speaking up, whining, secrets, grief, falling in love with our kids, being a loser, pain, scars and having fun! Excellent book. I highly recommend it.

Summary: Take a little time for yourself!
Review: You deserve a break and a laugh! Make a coffee, curl up on the couch and let this book take you. That feeling of elation and fellowship we feel when we have our girlfriend's over for tea is recreated with every page. A joy to read. A pleasure to retell. A side splitting giggle fest all your own! All that for under $10. It's very worth it.
