Why I have this book: I read the other two books by this author and liked them both.
Fun fact: The author turned out to be in the missionary moms group for my daughter's LDS mission. So now I've "met" her via email.
This book has the same kind of theme as her other two books (the various challenges of being a wife/mom/LDS/daughter-in-law/friend, etc.), but somehow the writing style creates a different feel. I'm not really sure how to describe it. I should read the other ones again... maybe it was just my perspective at the time I read them.
My cursed editing brain was triggered a few times, and one part I would have liked to see explored a little more... but all in all, I enjoyed it a great deal. I like how she takes real life challenges that a lot of women deal with and creates a storyline that often doesn't necessarily revolve around those issues. That probably doens't make sense... but I guess I mean that we all have many facets to our lives, and no one issue can stay our primary focus all the time. We have lots of things that demand our attention and contribute to the tapestry of our lives. And with all of those things, we keep living. Her books describe that reality well.
I will keep watching for her future releases, because I've found all of her books to be very worthwhile.
Clean.
