Review of the book The Beauty Book by Nancy Rue

This book was really cute. Its about making girls feel good about themselves and such.

I like the quote on page 10 which says "God doesn't compare us. Jesus doesn't compare us. The world we live in compares us, but who are we supposed to follow? Jesus made it really plain. Love your neighbor as yourself, see scripture Mark 12:31. That means no putting your neighbor down-and no putting yourself down. Period"

I also like how throughout the book there is little quizzes to take with no wrong answers that help you feel better about yourself.  The author asks you to describe yourself and I said that I am a normal girl who enjoys treating herself.

All in all I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it to anyone. I feel like we judge ourselves more then other people. We want to be liked and looked upon as good and pretty. We always need recognition from others that we are worth it. Thats why we want our husband to tell us he loves us and that we are pretty. Or friends tell us they are enjoy us and spending time with us. Its why we depend on our family to tell us we are worth it and worth living and everything. I try to tell my husband everyday that I love him and everything about him and that he is the best husband out there because he needs to know in case something happens to be without me or me without him, I want him to know how I feel.
