Rating: Summary: An Important Book for These Times Review: I loved The Hundredth Woman! Weaving women's history from the witch hunting craze in Europe with the lives of three modern women, Kate Green has created an action-packed adventure sure to entertain. But The Hundredth Woman is more than "just" fiction because the world she writes about is our world, the trials and tribulations of the characters are ours as well, and their process of awakening and growth can be ours, too. Kate asks, "What if women hold the key to our future?" By the end of the book, it's clear that we do.
Rating: Summary: I'm a card-carrying Hundredth Woman Review: I loved The Hundredth Woman. The characters are real women who are great role models for how to find and follow your path in life, whatever that may be. They demonstrate how living with passion can transform us as individuals, and can transform the world. Through the characters, the author shares the secret keys to a happier, richer life: open your heart, love enthusiastically, laugh often, connect with nature, be persistent in following your dreams, despite the obstacles, and make connections with like-minded souls from all realms. I found the women and their relationships to be an inspiration, and a reminder that I am not alone in my personal quest. There ARE other women like me out there - women who want their lives to be richer, more meaningful, and more connected. This novel helps us to see how to accomplish that. I plan to give this book to several of my friends, and will re-read it regularly. I'm happy to consider myself a Hundredth Woman!
Rating: Summary: Women discovering their inner strengths Review: In The Hundredth Woman Kate Green has uniquely crafted three goddess characters full of passion, drama, and beauty. They are real-life women enduring real-life battles. Well-written with a clearly defined plot, Kate's novel is much more than a book "just for women." There is no hardcore male bashing -- only hardcore women discovering their inner strengths and how to use them -- powers the author experienced while traveling the world learning from indigenous female spiritual leaders. The story includes women confronting ghosts from the past, women learning how to rebuild their lives, and women trying to save the planet -- all entwined together in this highly spiritual life-changing novel.
Rating: Summary: Clearly a book whose time has come! Review: In The Hundredth Woman, Kate Green has masterfully woven the stories of three women whose lives intertwine in an exploration of their feelings, desires, strengths and passions as they come to grips with the true essence of who they are. The book draws you in right from the beginning and it doesn't let go. Far more than just a novel of fiction, Hundredth Woman brings to light the power women have always had and the power that is being positively reclaimed today. I found myself mesmerized by the characters and the story, but far more than that, I found the message exciting, empowering, and impactful on many, many levels of my being. The book is a celebration of women and life. And this `hundredth woman' is sharing it with the other `hundredth women' in her life!
Rating: Summary: Inspired Review: Kate Green is inspired. She has a message for all women in this book. Fortunately she is also a good storyteller. As a man, I was able to read it cover to cover, swallow a few bitter pills of knowledge about how men have treated women, and still enjoy myself.The best scenes involve the interactions of spirit and mortal characters. Kate totally removes the veils of seperation with lively dialog. This is definitely a book to encourage the feminine qualities needed to balance our world today.
Rating: Summary: Sexy, fun page turner Review: Speaking as a man, I found The Hundredth Woman empowering, fun and wonderfully challenging. Kate Green's novel is a passionate, exciting read that turns the 'battle' of Good and Evil on its ear. Women are elevated to a place of empowerment in themselves (where they should always have been), and this is achieved without falling into the very common men bashing found in other fare. Women and men are true equals, learning and growing and loving. Equals though they may be, make no mistake, the women drive this story and thank the goddess they do. This story is sexy, funny and above all a page turner. Each new character brings zest to the read. And to top it off Ms. Green uses its fast plot and deep lovely characters to tell a story that shows us how to start making changes in our lives to make them happier, more fulfilling and engaged. I loved it!

Rating: Summary: Read it and be it Review: The Hundredth Woman is far more than a darn good yarn about some likable women dealing with life's lumps and finding their individual ways to move the world the way they want it to go. It's also an immediate inspiration - you can identify with these women and see that you can move the world too - and it provides a box of tools to help you do it. Have a great time enjoying the story, then go out and be the Hundredth Woman - that's what I'm doing after reading this book.
