I have been wanting to
read this since hearing Emily speak on Jen Hatmaker’s podcast.(Which, btw, if you haven't listened to yet you MUST.) I was so
lucky when Netgalley granted me this book as a wish, as I have been
unable to find it anywhere locally. Which is crazy to me because I
literally live in Pensacola, the same place as the author.
Unfortunately
I didn’t love this book as much as I hoped. To begin with the
formatting for the kindle version I received was AWFUL. Sentences would
begin on one page and finish three pages later, or often you would get
the second half of the sentence before the first. It was basically a
choose your own adventure I didn’t choose. Still it was readable once I got the hang of it. Emily
seems very sweet and loving and had some great points about remembering
to be in the now and to appreciate what you have, but it was pretty
generalized and honestly there just wasn’t enough content to warrant a full
book. I do think perhaps this is better suited towards Christian mothers of young
children than someone like me, perpetually single but a wonderful aunt. And clearly humble as well.
Thanks to Netgalley and the Publisher for providing me with a copy of this book to review. All opinions are my own.
