Negative Positive
Title: Rough and disappointing
Review: I thought this book would be helpful to my daughters as they raise young girls into the teenage years. I purchased the book to give to them. Now that I have read it, I don't think this book would be helpful to them. Having raised daughters myself and now the grandmother of many granddaughters, I feel I can speak from experience. I was particularly taken back by the quoted text that was supposed to be what young girls actually said. Not all girls act the way she portrayed in the book nor do they have such mean motivations. I found the book negative, full of quick stereotypes, and slanted. Not everyone needs to be put in a stereotype so quickly. There are some truths in the book, but you have to use discernment in reading it to have a balanced view of teenage girls.
Is the review positive or negative?
