I'm not usually a non-fiction reader...I tend to gravitate to the light and fluffy, actually. But this book had been making such headlines that I felt like I needed to give it a shot. After waiting on hold from the library for a very long time, it was finally my turn.

Some parts of the book didn't really pertain to me anymore, but I wish it had been around when I was a young mother. Other parts were like they were shouting at me. Especially the part about being picky about what you say yes to. That's always been a fault of mine and one I'd really like to work on in the new year after reading this book.

Another part that really jumped out at me, was about not breaking promises to yourself. I know that I, for one, am incredibly guilty of this and it's something I never really thought about in the way that Rachel Hollis painted it. So, that will become goal number 2 in the journey to the me I was meant to be.

While reading, it's hard to not pick out things you think your friends and loved ones might need to hear as well, so I can see why it's been talked about SO much. We all want the people we care about to hear their own worth just like we did.
