Title: Reviving Ophelia with an inward look
Product review: I am a female high school student who would fall into the range Mary Pipher has coined, in this book, as "intelligent girls." Until I read her book I was confused as to why I felt so insecure and lacked a sense of belonging in social circles, although I have been active in everything I can possibly manage in and out of school. Reading this literature not only helped me look within myself for answers, but it showed me a vivid contrast to other girls' situations through the accounts of numerous girls Ms. Pipher wrote about. I have begun to understand what I, and other young women, go through in the process of growing up, and I am thankful to have had the privelage of reading this book because I can now work on preserving my sense of self and I may hold myself accountable for contiuing to grow in confidence and morals dispite a society ravaged by pressure to be "perfect."
