Lisa Whelchel

Integrity Publishers, 2006

Great book for busy moms
I really enjoyed this book and found it very helpful. Lisa shows busy moms how to take care of their spirits, bodies, souls, selves, and relationships. After discussing the importance of each area, she gives several specific examples of how to take care of this part of you. For example, under taking care of your soul, she lists some fun things to do with your family--such as pillow fights, a ...

Yada Yade Prayer Group book 3
It is inspiring to see the growth in the main character's walk with the Lord. I enjoy the characters in this book and love reading about their lives and journeys. Book four, here I come!

Sexography: One Woman's Journey from Ignorance to Bliss

14 reviews
Carly Milne

Phoenix Books, 2007

An absolutely riveting story
I found Carly Milne's powerful memoir almost impossible to put down. It is profoundly moving, at times humorous and often heartbreaking, but just as the author comes to feel gratitude for the strength she's gained from her life's challenges, the reader too will feel thankful for the courage and honesty of this book. Even if you haven't personally experienced sexual abuse, every woman (and man) ...

The New Feminine Brain: Developing Your Intuitive Genius

18 reviews
Mona Lisa Schulz

Free Press, 2006

A milestone...
This book is quite insightful and thought provoking. Mona Lisa Schulz has done a great job of taking mass amounts of complicated research and putting it into a form that the layman can understand. There is definitely a lack of good research on women's bodies/health and I think this book is a milestone in the field. I would highly recommend this book to any woman in any walk of life. The one ...

Elisabeth Elliot

Revell, 1983

Wonderful
This book was awesome. I cannot say enough good things. Elisabeth Elliot is a woman of wisdom and insight. It was like having my grandmother sit me down and talk to me about the kind of man I need to be. She is a wealth of ideas, principles, and ways of Living. She has walked the walk and knows God. She was married to a great man of God. This is a must read. If you are a man...but it. If you are ...

Book of Hours

Galen Gillotte

Llewellyn Publications, 2001

Beautiful and spiritually moving
Llewellyn has outdone themselves with the presentation of this book. It comes in a hardcover edition with lovely gold cover writing and a ribbon marker. It looks like a book to treasure and leave by the altar, which is exactly what I do. After such a spectacular outside, the inside doesn't disappoint. There are 3 prayers for every day of the week (Morning, Evening, and Night) and 3 prayers ...

I Am Beautiful

Woody Winfree

Sourcebooks, Inc., 2006

Score another point for hope!
When I first picked up this book in a bookstore, I wanted to cry. To be honest, the tears welled up in my eyes. They weren't tears of sadness; they were tears of joy. This book is a welcome accompaniment to any home concerened with the importance of a woman's well-being, both physical and otherwise. The pictures are honest renderings of real women, women you'd bump into in the supermarket, or ...

Between Two Worlds: Escape from Tyranny: Growing Up in the Shadow of Saddam

24 reviews
Zainab Salbi, Laurie Becklund

Tantor Media, 2005

Outstanding Memoir, Written With Humility!
Wow! This book knocked me out. I could NOT put it down. It really helped me understand some of the conflict within Iraq, but more importantly, the author and tone of this book is just very human, real, and accessible. As a youngster, and for all of her formative years, Saddam Hussein is in the background as a family "friend". Though her parents resisted his friendship, they found it more and ...

Llewellyn Publications, 2000

One of my favorites - but -
This is a great cookbook - the one I use again and again. However, it is, unfortunately, out of print. Here's the good news! This cookbook has been revised and updated as Cooking by the Seasons - Simple Vegetarian Feasts. I've just received my copy and reviewed it at Amazon today. You'll find the cookbook searching for Allrich, Karri or Cooking by the Seasons. Enjoy! It's a fun cookbook, and the ...

Donna Elizabeth Boetig

Quill Driver Books, 1998

Write Women's Articles with Confidence
Of the many how-to books on writing that I've read, I am really pleased with this one. From the very beginning, I gleaned tips that I have never read before. It's written in a relaxed style, much like actually talking to the author. I highly recommend this book if you want to write for magazines.

Goddess Companion: Daily Meditations on the Goddess

9 reviews
Patricia Monaghan

Llewellyn Publications, 1999

This beautiful book touches the spaces my life touches.
Now here is a goddess meditation book with some depth! The daily poems and songs from ancient texts are rich in beauty, pointedly as diverse as the goddess herself. They are a wonderful source for personal and communal ritual. What I love the most is Monaghan's own reflections. It is so rare to have a poet scholar with the emotional depth, wisdom and incisive mind that strips away illusion to ...

Brigitte Secard

Jodere Group, 2003

Come Home to Yourself!
A lack of love is the root of all of our problems in this world, personally, socially, politically and otherwise. However, before we can address the issues outside of us, we must first heal the lack of love within ourselves. Brigitte Secard's book, Soulfire, is a tool that will help aid your delivery to self-love and self-truth. Only truth and inspiration lie between the pages of this book. ...

Cheryl Dickow

Pleasant Word-A Division of WinePress Publishing, 2005

Inspiring
I thoroughly enjoyed Cheryl Dickow's latest book, "Reclaiming Your Christian Self in a Secular World: A Woman's Worth." In this book, I found support and encouragement for my own spiritual journey. It inspired me to more consciously consider the calling that God has for my life. Through the examples of women in Scripture, I've identified ways to practice some of their traits in my life. I ...

She Rose: on a Journey from Girl to Goddess

10 reviews
Venus Jones

A-List Poetry, 2006

A Revolutionary Project
A fragrant rose amongst many thorns, She Rose: On a Journey from Girl to Goddess is entrenched in the tradition. Often, many ask why poets and spoken word artists, who come to us from the margin, must make waves in the societal ocean. Venus Jones clearly answers, "I want...women and the underrepresented everywhere to rise to their fullest potential so they may promise every nation a brighter ...

The Secret in the Old Attic (Nancy Drew, Book 21)

11 reviews
Carolyn Keene

Applewood Books, 2005

Totally worth reading
I read this in about one day, it may not have been exactly the most action-filled book, but it just somehow keeps me excited. It is hard to get up and use the bathroom, when you are reading this. I do think that anyone who likes Nancy Drew and Mystery should read this, it's one of the best so far that I have read.

Sacred Places of Goddess: 108 Destinations (Sacred Places: 108 Destinations series)

Karen Tate

CCC Publishing, 2006

An authoritative text of the goddess--much more than just a travel guide
This book can be used by writers and adventurers the way some people use the bible. Flip it open randomly and read the page where you land. That page will provide you some insight into `herstory'-images and ideas to fuel your daydreams, your night visions, your literary adventures as well as your travel plans. It's a travel guide as well as an authoritative text. It is an opportunity to reach ...

The Book of Goddesses: A Celebration of the Divine Feminine

Kris Waldherr

"Harry N. Abrams, Inc.", 2006

Captivating, delightful, and enriching: a book to treasure
Prepare to be beguiled. This is not an ordinary book. Finding it was a happy accident while I was researching artistic responses to the myth of Persephone and Demeter. I knew Kris Waldherr had written a children's book about Persephone ('Persephone and the Pomegranate'), but it was out of print and had become a hard-to-find collector's item. So I turned to this more recent book of hers ...

Steeple Hill, 2005

The Yada yada Prayer Group Gets Tough
Book 4 in a series of 7 books is a great demonstration of how God uses our talents to help us in our desire to help others. Great for small groups, home groups, women's groups or personal study. It's a pleasure to read.

Jesus and the Disinherited

9 reviews
Howard Thurman

Beacon Press, 1996

Wisdom for the non-believer
Its is purported that Martin Luther King carried this book with him at all times, and upon reading these pages one can see immdiately that this book isn't just a tome of Christianity, but rather a blueprint for the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960's. But in a larger sense this book is a guide for transcending the heartache and humiliation of modern life and renewing one's vision of a ...

Aphrodite's Daughters : Women's Sexual Stories and the Journey of the Soul

9 reviews
Jalaja Bonheim

Fireside, 1997

With _Aphrodite's Daughters_, the personal is mythical
This book is completely amazing. Bonheim interviews "ordinary" women about the connections they perceive between sex and the divine in their lives, and explores the themes of their stories using myths and philosophy from around the world. It's easy to read, moving, and inspiring. I couldn't put it down. Without a doubt the best book I've read in the past year, and I've read a lot! I can't ...
