BookSneeze Review: A Girl's Guide to Life by Katie Meier

I had low expectations for this book. The title is so ... cheesy. I had visions of after-school-special style dialogue.

And, there is some of that. As I read, I tried to think, "If I read this as a teenager, would I like that or would I roll my eyes and walk away??" Verdict: I think it's okay. Maybe a little eye-rolling, but maybe not walking away.

Otherwise, the book has advice on various subjects: texting, sexting (!!! I didn't have to deal with that as a teen), dating, religion, fashion. As a mother of a girl, I appreciated that the author encourages girls to really think about these things--and from a Christian perspective.

Four stars.

And now, the FTC disclaimer:
I was given this book free from Thomas Nelson Publishers, and was not compensated or required to write a positive review.
